Web Manager for Administrators
72
Cyclades Web Manager
ACS administrators perform most tasks through the Cyclades Web Manager
either locally or from a remote location. The Web Manager provides a real-
time view of the equipment that is connected to the ACS.
The ACS administrator can use the Web Manager to configure users and
ports. An authorized user can access connected devices through the Web
Manager to troubleshoot, maintain, recycle power, and reboot connected
devices.
Access to the Web Manager can be through any of the following methods:
• Through an Ethernet protocol network.
• Through a dial-up protocol such as:
• An optional modem connected to one of the serial ports.
• An optional modem card inserted into one of the PCMCIA slots.
• An optional CDMA wireless, GSM, or ISDN card.
Prerequisites for Using the Web Manager
The prerequisites described in this section must be completed before anyone
can access the Web Manager. If you have questions about any of the following
prerequisites, contact your system or network administrator.
• Basic network parameters must be defined on the ACS so the Web
Manager can be launched over the network.
• The IP address of the ACS must be known.
Note: If DHCP is enabled on ACS, the IP address is not fixed. Anyone wanting to
access the ACS must find out the currently-assigned IP address each time. If
DHCP is enabled and you do not know how to find out the current IP address
of the ACS, contact your system administrator for help.
• A user account must be defined on the Web Manager.
By default, the “root” has an account on the Web Manager. An
administrator with “root” access can add regular user accounts to access
connected devices.
