How to Access a Configured Network Management Card

Overview

After the Network Management Card is running on your network, you can use

the interfaces summarized here: Web interface, Telnet and SSH, SNMP, FTP,

and SCP.

For more information about the interfaces, see the User’s Guide.

Web interface

Use Microsoft Internet Explorer

(IE) 5.5 or higher (on Windows operating

systems only), Firefox

1.x or higher, by Mozilla

Corporation (on all

operating systems), or Netscape

7.x or higher (on all operating systems) to

access the Web interface of the Network Management Card. Other commonly

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

You can use either of the following protocols when you use the Web interface:

• The HTTP protocol (enabled by default), which provides authentication

by user name and password but no encryption.

• The HTTPS protocol, which provides extra security through Secure

Socket Layer (SSL), encrypts user names, passwords, and data being

transmitted, and authenticates 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 its DNS

name, if a DNS name is configured).

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

Administrator).

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

menu on the Administration tab, and select the access option under

the Web heading on the left navigation menu.

See the Security Handbook, available on the APC

Network Management Card Utility CD or from the APC

Web site, www.apc.com, for more information on

selecting and configuring network security.
