Windows 95.
■ Netscape 4.0/HotJava 1.1 or above on Compaq Tru64, and Solaris 2.5.
To log on to the Switch Via the Web:

User Level is more restrictive and cannot perform configuration commands. The
administrative page via a browser can only be accessed from the Admin Level all other

Web Tools Operational Concepts
When using Switch Web Tools note the following:
Clickable areas are highlighted with a hint displayed in the left side bottom bar
of your browser when the mouse is positioned over them (Switches on the
Fabric View page, ports and thermometer on the General Switch View page;
the Admin/ Telnet/performance buttons are not highlighted, however,
glossaries in the Switch general Information area are not highlighted).
When making changes in the Admin page, the Response Page shows whether
each individual configuration change was committed or rejected.
Java is disabled in some versions of Netscape and must be enabled by
checking both Enable Java and Enable Java Script buttons in the
Preferences/Advanced
menu.
Netscape or IE may hang with Java applications on Windows NT after SP3
due to True Color. To work around this problem, either change the NT display
settings to other than True Color, or download Microsoft’s hotfix to modify
WIN32K.SYS. The hotfix is available from Microsoft Technical Support.
