Once the IP definitions are set according to the network, the user can access the web-based
management interface.
To launch the web-management, enter the ProView 2900 IP Address in the Address field, in
the following format: http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the IP address of the
Management port).
Once the web-management is displayed, the address
changes to http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/home.asp.
NOTE
The web-based management is supported and can be operated through most web browsers.
However, Harmonic recommends Internet Explorer 6.0 and higher for optimal operation.
