WebConsole UI Overview
NetLinx Masters have a built-in WebConsole that allows you to make various configuration settings via a web browser
on any PC that has access to the Master. The webconsole consists of a series of web pages that are collectively called the
"Master Configuration Manager" (FIG. 31).
The webconsole is divided into three primary sections, indicated by three control buttons across the top of the main page
(FIG. 32):
Web Control: This is the option that is pre-selected when the WebConsole is accessed. Use the options in
the Manage Web Control Connections page to manage G4 Web Control connections (see the
WebConsole -
Web Control Options section on page 43).
Security: Click to access the System Security page. The options in this page allow you to configure various
aspects of NetLinx System and Security on the Master (see the
WebConsole - Security Options section on
page 31).
System: Click to access the System Details page. The options on this page allow you to view and configure
various aspects of the NetLinx System (see the WebConsole - System Options section on page 45).
