Craft Port (Continued)
Web Interface
The Pulsar Edge integrated 10/100Base-T port supports standard protocols over TCP/IP like SNMP,
TCP/IP, FTP and Telnet. It has an integrated HTTP web server that serves up web pages to remote PCs
using standard web browsers. Once connected to the network, simply typing the IP address assigned
to the controller in the browser will serve up the log-in screen. The same “web page- like” interface can
also be achieved through the serial Craft port connection by using the EasyView2 GUI program. The
controller also supports a T1.317 command line through both connections.
Specific systems like the CPS6000 Series II provide a front panel within LCD user interface option
which provides access and control of the majority of the features and settings in the controller. This
user interface and menu structure is described in the next session. The front panel menu structure and
terminology utilized is very intuitive and map over to the web. The web interface is common to all
Pulsar Edge controllers and will be described in more detail. Web pages are updated for functionally
and aesthetics. Thus, some of the screens shown may be slightly different than those served up by
your Pulsar Edge.
LAN Port as the Craft Port
The 10/100Base-T port can be configured to also be used as a Craft port when the connection is not
plugged into the site’s LAN. A PC can be directly connected to the LAN connection on the controller and
its standard Web browser can be used to locally access the system. This is achieved when the DHCP
server mode of operation for the LAN port is utilized. While the Craft port is operating as a DHCP
server, it must never be plugged into the building or surrounding LAN.

A Home page similar to that follows should appear. This page should be nearly identical
to that seen if the LAN access GUI was utilized. These pages are described in the next
section of the manual.
