Using the Management Access Program

or a Standard Web Browser

MAP has the following requirements:

ŸThe Microsoft TCP/IP protocol stack, the Microsoft IPX protocol stack, or Novell NetWare 32-bit IPX protocol stack must be installed on this PC.

ŸA web browser must be installed on this PC. Both Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer (3.02 or later) are supported.

The Management Access Program (MAP) uses a Windows-based HTML viewer program linked with a proprietary bi-directional IPX/IP channel program to allow access to the Network Interface Board's HTML-based monitoring and maintenance capabilities. An IP Web Browser also provides access to this capability directly. Either program allows you to:

ŸConfigure your network protocols for the Network Interface Board.

ŸReset the Network Interface Board remotely to either clear an error condition, or return the print server to its factory default settings.

ŸTroubleshoot problems in the Network Interface Board.

ŸEnable or disable the status sheet printout.

ŸAccess a context-sensitive help menu that fully explains how to use each Management Access Program feature.

ŸAccess the online help that explains how to use the many features of this program.

Note: Some functions provided with the Management Access Program or the Web Browser require a password. The factory default password is "sysadm".
