WebView Web Interface User Guide

A BOUT T HIS G UIDE
Traditionally, the interface for Alcatel routers has been an industry-standard command line interface.
A Web user interface is now available on OmniAccess 601, OmniAccess 602, and OmniAccess 604
routers and is only supported on Version 8.3 or higher.
The Alcatel models OmniAccess 601, OmniAccess 602, and OmniAccess 604 are designed to
provide WAN-to-LAN networking connectivity for branch office communication and primary Internet
access for medium-size businesses. The OmniAccess 601, OmniAccess 602, and OmniAccess 604 are
T1/E1 routers providing one, two, or four WAN ports, two 10/100 Fast Ethernet ports, an AUX port,
and a local/remote management Console port.
The Web UI does not replace the CLI. You must still perform the basic configuration described in the
Install or Quick Install Guides. Furthermore, the Web UI does not enable you to do remote monitoring
and advanced configurations. However, the Web UI allows new or inexperienced users to create basic
router and security configurations quickly and effectively.
