Logging In With the Web Browser Interface (GUI)

You can access the BROADway GUI using these minimum versions of the Microsoft or Netscape web browsers:

!Netscape Communicator 4.6 and above with Java 1.3.0_01 or later

!Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 and above with Java 1.3.0_01 or later

When you initially connect to the BROADway system using the web browser interface, the system determines which version of Java you are running. If your Java software needs to be upgraded and your PC is connected to the Internet, the applet will download an updated version of Java software. If you are not connected to the Internet and you are notified that you need to upgrade your Java software, you can access and install it from the BROADway software CD. The U.S. English only version of the Java software is located on the CD in the /java/english directory, and the international version is located in the /java/international directory. Double-click the appropriate installer file (.exe) and follow the instructions the installer provides.

NOTE: The GUI interface is designed to operate as a Java applet that is self-contained within the BROADway system and downloaded to the PC-based browser interface when accessed. If the management PC is connected remotely to the BROADway system through a low-speed WAN connection (for example 64Kbps), then the applet might take several minutes to install.

To connect to the BROADway system using the GUI:

1.On your PC, open a web browser window.

2.Type the IP address or domain name of the BROADway system (for example, http:// 192.168.5.10, or http:// 169.254.0.1) and press

ENTER.

3.To save time in the future, store the URL as an entry in the Favorites section of your browser.

NOTE: If you are using Internet Explorer, the Site shown in the login window comes from the domain name of the system, and the Realm is always Carrier Access.

4.Type your user name in the User Name field, initially CUSTOMER.

5.Type your password in the Password field, initially BROADWAY.

NOTE: User names and passwords are case sensitive.
