Viewing Graphs
Graphing requires the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) to be
installed on the browser device. This can be downloaded from
various web sites including http://www.java.com.
The first time that a graph is displayed, the security warning
message shown in Figure 6-36 will be displayed. This is because
the Java applet requires privileges to run and therefore includes a
security certificate. You should select ‘Yes’ in order to be able to
view graphs.
Minimizing Security Warnings When Viewing Graphs
When using Internet Explorer, it is possible to minimize security
alerts related to the download of Java applets used for graphing
purposes. This is done be installing a security certificate from the
modem onto the browser device. The procedure is as follows.
•
The
Edit->IP->Advanced
screen contains an option at the
bottom of the screen labeled ‘Download root authority
security certificate’. Selecting this option will download a
zip file to the web browser device.
•
On opening the zip file, a file named
pardise-root-
cert.der.crt
will be seen. Doubling clicking on the file name
will result in being asked whether you want to open the file.
•
Opening the file will then allow the certificate to be installed
using the Windows Certificate Import Wizard. Once the
certificate has been stored on the web browser device then
security warnings similar to that shown in Figure 6-36 will
no longer be displayed. Currently this way of minimizing
security warnings is supported for Internet Explorer only.
