4.2.4 Web Interface

The Web Interface, operating under standard Hypertext Transport Protocol (HTTP), is used to
communicate with and command the CMR-8500 via a Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) based
Graphical User Interface (GUI).

To use the Web Interface, a LAN connection must exist between a PC with a browser and the CMR-8500.

The CMR-8500 requires the user to be authenticated via login before the configuration can be viewed or
modified. The default user name is

comtech

and the default password is

comtech

.

After a period of inactivity (user defined), the user will be logged out
automatically. Log in again to reestablish connectivity.

After following the initial configuration procedure (see Chapter 2) to establish a valid IP Address, Subnet
Mask and Default Gateway for the CMR-8500, activate a browser on the PC’s desktop.

Enter the IP address for the CMR-8500 into the URL field as shown in the figure below.

If the port number has been modified from the standard 80 via the
Terminal Interface, then the port number must be appended with a
colon to the IP address.
