Configuration Using a Web Browser
The EDS’s web browser interface provides a convenient way to modify the switch’s configuration
and access the built-in monitoring and network administration functions. The recommended web
browser is Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.5 or 6.0 with JVM (Java Virtual Machine) installed.
NOTE To use the EDS’s management and monitoring functions from a PC host connected to the same
LAN as the EDS, you must make sure that the PC host and the EDS are on the same logical sub
network.
