Base Modem HTTP Interface

A user-supplied web browser allows the full monitoring and control (M&C) of the SLM-5650A
base modem from its HTTP Interface. This non-secure embedded web application is designed
for, and works best with, Microsoft Internet Explorer Version 7.0 or higher, Firefox, and Google
Chrome.
9.2.1

HTTP Interface Availability via Secure Management Interfaces

•
•
Only non-secure Ethernet-based network management is allowable via the HTTP Interface
browser and SNMPv2 interfaces, using the Base Modem's 'J5 Ethernet' RJ-45 port.
The Management Security option is not available for the SLM-5650A's Base Modem operations.
For modems with installed upgrades (i.e., the Network Processor (NP) Interface and/or the
TRANSEC Module Interface), enhanced Web interface functionality is afforded through the
dedicated HTTP/HTTPS interfaces provided with those upgrades. The NP HTTP/HTTPS
Interface, specifically, is designed to be used as an enhanced version of the Base Modem HTTP
Interface featured in this chapter.
