6.1 About Web-based Management
On CPU board of the switch there is an embedded HTML web site residing in flash
memory, which offers advanced management features and allow users to manage the
switch from anywhere on the network through a standard browser such as Microsoft
Internet Explorer.
The Web-Based Management supports Internet Explorer 5.0 or later. And, it is applied
for Java Applets for reducing network bandwidth consumption, enhance access speed
and present an easy viewing screen.
[NOTE]
By default, IE5.0 or later version does not allow Java Applets to activate
sockets. In fact, the user has to explicitly modify the browser setting to enable Java
Applets to operate network ports
.
