4.5.3 Exiting the Application
To exit the Horizon Compact Web interface application, close the Web browser window. Closing the
window will cause the user to be logged out of the system.
4.5.4 Login
The login page appears whenever you connect to the Horizon Compact Web interface. The session will
remain active for as long as your browser stays connected to the Horizon Compact. Due to security
concerns, if the computer is unattended for any length of time then it is recommended you disconnect
from the Horizon Compact Web interface by closing your browser window.
Horizon Compact units support multiple Web sessions. The number of simultaneous sessions is limited
by the number of accounts at each authorization level. For example, since there is a maximum of five
NOC accounts, then five different NOC users may simultaneously log in (see
Table 4-1). Additionally,
any one user account may establish multiple sessions on a single Horizon Compact modem. Therefore a
single Super User, NOC, or Admin account may be used by more than one person to log in to the same
Horizon Compact modem.
