Using Adaptec Storage Manager – Browser Edition
Architecture Overview
A locally managed system requires all of the following
components:
■ A supported Web browser, which should already be installed
on the system.
■ The Adaptec Web service which supplies content displayed on
the Web browser.
■ An Adaptec-supplied storage agent.
A remotely managed system requires all of the following
components:
■ The remote system must contain a browser.
■ The managed system must contain an Adaptec storage agent.
■ Remote and managed systems must have a TCP/IP connection.
The Web service can be installed on the same remote system as the
browser, the system with the RAID controller installed, or a third
system.
Communication security is ensured because Secure-HTTP (S-HTTP)
or SSL protocols are used to encrypt all transmitted data. Connection
over an Ethernet network, a corporate WAN, or VPN are supported.
