Browser Based Management
The EcoLAN 3000E can be managed over TCP/IP with a standard web browser, such
as Netscape Navigator or over IPX using the Management Access Program (MAP).
MAP is a Windows-based HTML viewer which provides management capabilities
over IPX using a very similar interface to a standard web browser.
Either method of access to the 3000E provides the following capabilities:
• Enable, disable, and configure your network protocols for the EcoLAN 3000E.
• Reset the EcoLAN 3000E remotely to either clear an error condition, or return the
print server to its factory default settings.
• Troubleshoot problems in the EcoLAN 3000E.
• Enable or disable the status sheet printout.
• Access a context-sensitive help menu that fully explains how to use each feature.
Note: To be able to change parameter values with the Management Access Program or a
web browser, you must know the EcoLAN 3000E management password. The
factory default password is “sysadm”. This password is case sensitive. The
default password may be changed with MAP or with a web browser.
3.1 The Management Access Program (MAP)
MAP is a Windows-based HTML viewer which provides management capabilities
over IPX using a very similar interface to a standard web browser. MAP may be used
with Windows 3.1 or 3.11, Windows 95/98, or Windows NT 3.51 or later. The
Windows workstation running MAP must have the IPX protocol enabled.
(Instructions for installing the IPX protocol in Windows 95/98 or NT 4.0 are included
in section 5.4.2.2.)
