Digital Networks WebView Description

This user guide describes Digital Networks WebView, a Web browser- based utility which allows you to remotely configure and manage Digital Networks products, including the DNswitch 800. There is no software to install as Web management capability is built into the switch’s management.

Digital Networks WebView provides a graphical, real-time representation of the front panel on the DNswitch 800. This graphic, along with additionally defined areas of the browser interface, allow you to interactively configure the switch, monitor its status, and view statistical information.

Digital Networks WebView provides a simple, intuitive method for managing the DNswitch 800. This switch can also be managed via the serial console, Telnet, or SNMP.

System Requirements

The requirements for running Digital Networks WebView are relatively simple. You will need a Java-enabled, frames-capable Web browser and a TCP/IP network connection to the switch, whether over a local network, a remote private network, or over the Internet.

When connecting over the Internet, the integrity of your connection will have an impact on the speed and performance of tasks. If your connection is subject to prohibitive periods of network congestion, or experiences high packet loss, you may need to consider a different Internet service provider.

In addition, Digital Networks WebView uses SNMP for some of its communications with the switch. This may cause problems when the application is run across some Internet firewalls, which may be configured to disallow SNMP access.
