Connecting to the library remotely using the BlueScale web interface
Enter the IP address of the TFinity 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.
Use the following steps...
1. Enter the IP address using the form: http://nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn, where
nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn is the IP address you configured for the library (see
Configure Network Settings on page 118).
2. The BlueScale Login screen displays (see Figure 44 on page 96). Proceed to
Step 2 on page 98.
1. Enter the IP address using the form: https://nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn, where
nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn is the IP address you configured for the library. See
Enable SSL on page 115 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 have not resolved the security
certificate warning, either by storing a valid security certificate on the library
(see Install a Security Certificate and Authentication Key on page 126) 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.
3. The BlueScale Login screen displays (see Figure 44 on page 96). Proceed to
Step 2 on page 98.
