Chapter 4 Configuring the Barricade
The Barricade provides a Web-based configuration scheme, which is configurable by
Netscape Communicator or Internet Explorer. This approach can be adopted on any MS
Windows, Macintosh or UNIX based platform.
4.1 Startup and Log in
Activate your browser, and
disable the proxy
or
add the IP address of the Barricade into
the exceptions
. Then type the Barricade’s IP address in the
Location
(for Netscape) or
Address
(for Explorer) field and press ENTER. For example:
http://192.168.123.254
.
After the connection is established, you will see the web user interface. There are two
appearances of the web user interface:
for general users
and
for system administrator
.
To log in as an administrator, enter the system password (the factory setting is ”
admin
”) in
the
System Password
field and click the
Log in
button. If the password is correct, the web
appearance will be changed into administrator
configure mode. As listed in its main menu,
there are several options for system administration.
