Using the Graphical User Interface (GUI) on AT-9900 Switches 1-3
Software Release 2.7.4
C613-10444-00 REV A
Accessing the Switch via the GUI
To use the GUI to configure the switch, you use a web browser to open a
connection to the switch’s HTTP server. Therefore, you need a PC, a web
browser and the switch. Supported browsers and operating systems, and the
settings you need on your PC and browser, are detailed in the following
section. Switch setup is detailed in “Establishing a Connection to the Switch”
on page 1-5.
Browser and PC Setup
The GUI requires a web browser installed on a PC. Table 1-1 shows supported
combinations of operating system and browser.
JavaScript must be enabled. To enable JavaScript in Internet Explorer:
1. From the Tools menu, select Internet Options
2. Select the Security tab
3. Click on the Custom Level button
4. Under the Scripting section, ensure that “Active scripting” is enabled.
To enable JavaScript in Netscape 6.2.x:
1. From the Edit menu, select Preference
2. Select the Advanced menu option.
3. Ensure that the “Enable JavaScript for Navigator” checkbox is checked.
The minimum screen resolution on the PC is 800x600.
Pop-up Windows
Pop-up windows must be allowed. If you are using a toolbar or plug-in on
your browser to block pop-ups, disable it while using the GUI. The GUI
displays detailed configuration options and information in pop-up windows.
Either turn the toolbar off or specify that pop-ups are allowed for the IP
address of the router. To turn off a toolbar on Internet Explorer 6, select
Toolbars from the View menu and make sure the toolbar is not checked.
