Appendix F: Device Manager Cross Launch - Cisco UC500 Series Technical Training Manual

APPENDIX F: Device Manager Cross Launch

APPENDIX F: Device Manager Cross Launch
Introduction:
Many devices in the Cisco SBCS portfolio have embedded device managers which can be accessed from
a web browser such as Microsoft Internet Explorer.
CCA can automatically launch the embedded device manager of a Cisco SBCS platform as long as the
device can be discovered in the CCA network topology view and the CCA PC has network connectivity
to the discovered device. This feature is called device manager cross launch.
Objective:
Using CCA, cross Launch the device manager for a switch connected to the UC500
Lab Set-up:
Refer to the main diagram. Connect a Cisco CE520 to the UC500 expansion port.
Device manager cross launch requires that a default web browser is configured on the PC that has CCA
installed. While in most cases this should already be configured, the steps below outline how to set this
up for common web browser software.
Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0
Select Tools > Internet Options. Select "Internet Explorer should check to see whether it is the default
browser" and click OK.
Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0
