System information
Note
These are just examples that were suitable for our environment. The host
name shown above and the TCP/IP address are not accessible from outside
the IBM firewall. Also, the socket address of 411 is a default address that
you can change when you configure the Webability function.

Figure 181 on page 154 shows you how to access the main menu at the
gateways TME 10 NetFinity menu. If you are using the default socket
80
, then
you may omit it, otherwise you have to give the correct socket number. Please
be aware that your Web browser′s workstation TCP/IP address has to be given
access to the gateway. This is done within the Web Manager configuration at the
gateway. See 6.2, “Configuration of the Web Manager” on page 151 for details
on how to configure it. If you now try to access one of the TME 10 NetFinity
services and you now have set up the security manager in this gateway
properly, you should receive a pop-up menu that requests that you enter a valid
user ID and password. As you can see in the above picture, all of the TME 10
NetFinity services icons have a key symbol beside them. This means that these
services are not available to public users. To use these services you have to
enter the user ID and password that was defined in the TME 10 NetFinity security
table. For those services that don′t have a key symbol beside them, you do not
need a user ID to use them. If you now enter an invalid user ID or password
then you will not be allowed to use the TME 10 NetFinity services of your
gateway. On this main menu you can see that even using the Internet access to
a workstation, you get the same icons for your TME 10 NetFinity services as you
get from the regular desktop interface GUI. Therefore, from an operations
perspective, there is very little new training that is required. There are just a
few restrictions in using the different services with the Web browser. See 6.3.1,
“Limitations When Using the Web Manager” on page 164 for details on these
restrictions.
