About Web-based Management
An embedded HTML web site resides in flash memory on the CPU board. It contains advanced
management features and allows you to manage the switch from anywhere on the network
through a standard web browser such as Microsoft Internet Explorer.
The Web-Based Management function supports Internet Explorer 5.0 or later. It is based on Java
Applets with an aim to reduce 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 open sockets. You need
to intentionaly modify the browser setting in order to enable Java Applets to use network
ports.
