Setting up the Broadband Firewall Router using the Web browser
Overview
We’ve designed an easy-to-use web-based configuration interface in the device. Users can
set up the device by using the web browser. Furthermore, the enhanced HTTP support
available in the device includes a quick and easy management tool for performing the
configuration tasks, including all basic and advanced setup, on a TCP/IP network.
To access the device from your web browser you will need a web browser supporting frame
structure within an HTML page. Netscape or Microsoft Internet Explorer JAVA-enabled
browser is recommended.
