InfraStruXure InRow RC—Operation and Maintenance 33

How to Access a Configured Unit

Overview

After the InRow RC is running on your network, you can use the interfaces summarized in this

section to access the InRow RC.

Web interface

As your browser, you can use Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.5 and higher (on Windows operating

systems only), Firefox 1.x by Mozilla (on all operating systems), or Netscape

7.x and higher (on all

operating systems) to access the InRow RC through its Web interface. Other commonly available

browsers also may work but have not been fully tested by APC.

To use the Web browser to configure display interface options or to view the event log, you can use

either of the following:

• The HTTP protocol (enabled by default) provides authentication by user name and password

but no encryption.

• The more secure HTTPS protocol provides extra security through Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)

and encrypts user names, passwords, and data being transmitted. It also provides authentication

of Network Management Cards by means of digital certificates.

To access the Web interface and configure the security of your device on the network:

1. Address the Network Management Card by its IP address or DNS name (if configured).

2. Enter the user name and password (by default, apc and apc for an Administrator, or device and

apc for a Device User).

3. To enable or disable the HTTP or HTTPS protocols, use the Network

menu on the

Administration tab, and select the Access option under the Web heading on the left navigation

menu.
