Configuring the Router
The Siemens Business Class Router family of products provides two user interfaces: a Web Management
Interface and a console-based Command Line Interface (CLI). The Web Management Interface uses an HTTP
server housed in the router. Using this server, you can connect to and manage the router using your Web
browser. The Web Management Interface is accessible through most HTML browsers, though Internet
Explorer 4.0 or Netscape 4.0 and higher are recommended. Refer to the Technical Reference Guide for details
on managing the router through the CLI.
