Global user access via web browser
You can use a standard Web browser (supported versions) to gain access to the
ServSwitch CX with IP and its host server(s). As soon as you make contact with the
ServSwitch CX with IP it will begin downloading a small Java application to your
browser, which will be used only for the duration of your connection.
To access via your web browser
1 Launch your standard Web browser as usual.
If you are using a dial up link.
2 In the Address section, type the address of the ServSwitch CX with IP as follows:
http://v.w.x.y
where v.w.x.y is the IP network address, for example 192.168.0.3
If you have been asked to also enter a port number.
3 Press . A connection attempt will be made.
4 In the browser window, select the ‘Connect using built-in Java VNC viewer’
option to download a small application that will temporarily empower your
browser (on slow connections the application download can take several
tens of seconds to complete). Once complete, a connection details dialog
will be displayed:
The previously entered
ServSwitch CX with IP address
will be shown here
Options button
Provides a range of viewer and connection settings - MORE [+]
5 Make any necessary option/encryption changes and click the OK button
to proceed. Depending on the options selected, you may need to confirm
certain items.
6 A second connection attempt will be made and if successful, an
authentication dialog will be displayed:
7 Enter your username and password. The viewer window should now open
and show the current host server. Note: If the Username entry is blanked out
then only admin user account is currently defined and only a password is
required.
If required, select the
encryption mode - MORE [+] IMPORTANT: During login, if you see a warning message similar to the
one shown here, then stop and do not proceed.
This message is displayed if a ServSwitch CX with IP unit, that your
viewer has previously visited, has had a change of security keys. This
is not uncommon if a unit is reset for some reason. However, it could
also mean that your trusted unit is being spoofed and you may not be
connecting to the system that you think you are.
Do not click the Yes button until you have checked with your
administrator that the trusted ServSwitch CX with IP unit has been
recently reset for some reason.
