Starting an Omega Session from a Web Browser
This section contains the procedure for starting an Omega session from
a web browser.
Note
You cannot use a web browser to manage a Fast Ethernet switch if
the switch is part of a non-TCP/IP network.
Before you can manage the switch in a TCP/IP environment, it must have
an IP address. In order to configure the IP parameters for the first time,
you must access the Omega program locally using the switch RS232
port; refer to Starting a Local Omega Session Using the RS232 Port on
page 23 for instructions.
To start an Omega session from a web browser, perform the following
procedure:
1. Start your web browser.
Note
If the PC with the web browser is connected directly to the switch or
is on the same side of a firewall as the switch, you must configure
your browser’s network options not to use proxies. Consult your
web browser’s documentation on how to configure the browser not
to use proxies.
2. Enter the IP address of the switch you want to manage in the URL field
of the browser, as shown in Figure 2.
