Connecting to the HTTP Interface
Note:
The Ethernet port is assigned a default hostname of
SL<serial number>-0, where <serial number> is the serial number
of the library (located on the rear panel of the library). This
hostname may be changed to avoid duplicate hostnames.
Note:
If you are having trouble bringing up the Web page with Internet
Explorer, be sure to check your HTTP proxy settings. To change
your settings:
i.
Go to
Tools > Internet Options > Connections > LAN Settings >
Advanced
.
ii.
Add the IP address or hostname of the library to the Exceptions
list.
1.
Connect the library to your network; DHCP can assign the IP address, subnet
mask, iSNS, gateway information, and WINS if configured to do so.
If the DHCP service is only supplying the IP address, you can fill in the rest of
the information through the HTTP or serial interface.
2.
Once a network connection is established, open an internet browser and enter
the IP address or hostname for the library.
