About Web-based Management
An embedded HTML web site resides in the flash memory of the CPU board. It contains
advanced management features which allow the user to manage the switch from anywhere on
the network via a standard web browser such as Microsoft Internet Explorer.
The Web-Based Management function supports Internet Explorer 5.0 or later. It is based on Java
Applets with an aim at reducing network bandwidth consumption and enhances access speed in
a viewing screen.
Note: By default, IE5.0 or later versions do not allow Java Applets to open sockets. T h e b ro w s e r s e t t i ng s n e e d t o b e
explicitly modified in order to enable Java Applets for use on network ports.
