Connecting to the library remotely using the BlueScale web interface
Enter the IP address of the library in the address bar of a web browser
on a computer on an active network that has access to the library. The
steps you use depend on whether SSL is enabled or not.
If SSL is... Use the following steps...
Not enabled (the
default setting)
1. Enter the IPv4 or IPv6 address configured for the library in the format:
http://[library IP address] (see Configure Network Settings on
page 112).
2. The BlueScale Login screen displays (see Figure 41 on page 88). Proceed to
Step 2 on page 91.
Enabled 1. Enter the IPv4 or IPv6 address configured for the library in the format
https://[library IP address] (see Configure Network Settings on
page 112). See Enable SSL on page 108 for information about enabling SSL.
Important: When using SSL, you must prefix the IP address with https://
instead of just entering the IP address.
2. If you receive a warning about the website’s security certificate, choose to
ignore or resolve the warning.
Notes:
The security warning only appears if you did not resolve the security
certificate warning, either by storing a valid security certificate on the library
(see Install a Security Certificate and Authentication Key on page 121) or by
creating a security exception for the library on the browser (method depends
on the browser you are using).
If you do not resolve the warning, you will receive the warning about the
security certificate each time you access the BlueScale web interface.
