Web Browser Setup
Web Browser Setup
The recommended web browser for use with the 2000NET Control and
Monitoring System is either:
•
Netscape Navigator 4.x or later, or
•
Internet Explorer 4.x or later.
Note
The use of Internet Explorer 4 with Windows NT has been found to be very
slow.
Versions 3.x or earlier of these browsers may cause undesirable results in
the presentation of HTML frames.
Addressing the Frame URL
To address a 2000 Kameleon frame from an internet browser, enter the
frame’s default URL into the URL line of the browser (
LOCATION
in Netscape
Navigator,
ADDRESS
in Internet Explorer). The URL will be the IP Address
given to the frame during initial setup (see
Setting Frame Network Identity on
), or a Domain name that has been mapped to the IP address in your
Domain Name Server tables. The URL should look like this:
http://{Frame’s IP Address}/
Example:
http://127.123.234.2/
Or:
http://{Frame’s Domain Name}/
Example:
http://frame1.xyz.com/
The correctly entered URL will call up the 2000 frame’s default first web
page—Frame Status.
Default MAC (machine) Address
Each 2000 Kameleon frame has a unique ethernet physical level MAC
address that is stored in the frame ID memory chip. If this memory has
failed, the 2000NET module will substitute a default MAC address: 08-00-
11-09-CD-AB. If more than one 2000 frame in your network is assigned the
default MAC address, network conflicts will occur. To verify the frame has
a unique MAC address refer to
