6 Configuration Using the Web Interface
The device contains a Web interface to be used for configuration and for run-time
monitoring. The Web interface enables users equipped with any standard Web-browsing
application such as Microsoft™ Internet Explorer™ (Version 6.0 and higher) or Firefox™
(Versions 5 through 9.0) to:

Provision devices (refer to Configuration on page 66).

Verify configuration changes in the Status pages (refer to 'Status and Diagnostic
Menu' on page 139) or Toolbar (refer to Getting Acquainted with the Web Interface on
page 47.

Load the CMP file (refer to Software Upgrade Wizard).

Load the ini, CAS, Voice Prompt, CPT, Prerecorded Tones, Dial Plan, Coder Table,
and AMD Sensitivity Files (refer to Load Auxiliary Files on page 126).
Note: Although the Web Interface's recommended resolutions are 1024 x 768 and
1280 x 1024 pixels, AudioCodes supports other advanced resolutions.
6.1 Limiting the Web Interface to Read-Only Mode
Initially, the Web interface displays the default parameters that are pre-installed in the
device. These parameters can be modified using the Web interface, either by modifying
parameters on the various pages or by loading a text configuration ini file to the device.
Administrators can limit the Web interface to read-only mode by changing the value of the
DisableWebConfig ini file parameter. The read-only mode feature can be used as a
security measure. This security level provides protection against unauthorized access
(such as Internet hacker attacks), particularly important to users without a firewall.

To limit the Web Server to read-only mode:

Set the ini file parameter DisableWebConfig to 1 (Default = 0, i.e. read-write mode)
and send the modified ini file to the device. All Web pages are presented in read-only
mode. The ability to modify configuration data is disabled. In addition, users do NOT
have access to any "File Loading", "Regional Settings","Web User Accounts",
"Maintenance Actions" and "Configuration File" pages.
Notes:
•
'Read Only' policy can also be employed by setting DisableWebConfig to
0, setting the secondary account to User_Monitor access level and
distributing the Main and Secondary accounts' user name password pairs
according to the organization's security policy.
•
When DisableWebConfig is set to 1, all users are demoted to ‘Read Only’
privileges regardless of their access level.
