Refer to “Ports and services convention” on page 31 for a list of NewsBrowse
services.
Accessing NewsBrowse system configuration pages
Use Internet Explorer to browse to port 280 of a NewsBrowse machine to access its
configuration pages. You must have administrator permissions on the NewsBrowse
machine. For example, to log on to the configuration pages on the NewsBrowse server
with administrator permissions, use the following:
Username: root-nb-svr\nbadmin
Password: *****
The settings you find on a particular computer’s configuration pages depend on the
NewsBrowse software installed on the computer. For example, if your MDI
component are hosted on a single-channel encoder, you find the Profile Managed
Device and Proxy Managed Device configuration settings at port 280 of that
single-channel encoder. However, if your MDI component are hosted on a dedicated
MDI server, you find the Profile Managed Device and Proxy Managed Device
configuration settings at port 280 of the MDI server machine.
You can access a NewsBrowse computer’s configuration pages as follows:
• From the local computer, use the following URL:
http://localhost:280
• From the NewsBrowse server, you can also open the NewsBrowse launch page and
the click the Configuration link. To open the NewsBrowse launch page, use the
following URL:
http://localhost/nbui
The NewsBrowse launch page resides on the NewsBrowse server only.
• From a network-connected computer, substitute localhost in the URL with the
computer’s network name. For example, to access the configuration pages or the
NewsBrowse launch page on a NewsBrowse server named iron-nb-svr, use the
following URLs:
http://iron-nb-svr:280
http://iron-nb-svr/nbui
