Web Based Management

Overview
A standard Web Browser can be used to manage your machine using the HTTP (Hyper Text Transfer
Protocol). You can get the following information from a machine on your network using a web browser.
Machine status information
Change network settings such as TCP/IP information
Software version information of the machine and print server
Change network and machine configuration details
Note
We recommend Microsoft
Safari 1.3 (or greater) for Macintosh. Please also make sure that JavaScript and Cookies are always
enabled in whichever browser you use. If a different web browser is used, make sure it is compatible with
HTTP 1.0 and HTTP 1.1.
You must use the TCP/IP protocol on your network and have a valid IP address programmed into the print
server and your computer.
Note
• To learn how to configure the IP address on your machine, see Setting the IP address and subnet mask
on page 13.
• You can use a web browser on most computing platforms, for example, Macintosh and UNIX users are
also able to connect to the machine and manage it.
• You can also use the BRAdmin applications to manage the machine and its network configuration.
• This print server also supports HTTPS for secure management using SSL. See Managing your network
printer securely on page 148.
