Web Configurator Overview
The embedded web configurator allows you to manage the ZyWALL from anywhere through a browser such
as Microsoft Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator. Use Internet Explorer 6.0 and later or Netscape
Navigator 7.0 and later versions with JavaScript enabled.
It is recommended that you set your screen resolution to 1024 by 768 pixels. The screens you see in the web
configurator may vary somewhat from the ones shown in this document due to differences between
individual ZyWALL models or firmware versions. The screens shown come primarily from the ZyWALL
10W. Screens specific to other models have the model listed in the caption.
