Ethernet Control

The DVS 304 features an on-board Web server, displayed as a set of default Web pages. These pages allow you to control and operate the DVS 304 unit through its Ethernet port, connected via a LAN or WAN, using a Web browser such as Microsoft’s Internet Explorer (version 5.5 or higher), or Netscape Navigator (version 6.0 or higher).

This chapter describes these default Web pages, which are always available and cannot be erased or overwritten.

3.	Enter the unit’s IP address in the browser’s Address field.

NIf the local system administrators have not changed the value, the factory- specified default, 192.168.254.254, is the correct value for this field.

4. If you want the browser to display a page other than the default page (such as a custom page that you have created and uploaded), enter a slash (/) and the file name to open.

NThe browser’s Address field should display the address in the following format: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/{optional_file_name.html}

The following characters are invalid in file names: {space} ~ @ = ‘ [ ] { }
