Benefits

The EWS interface provides the following benefits:
Embedded Web Server User Guide
Enables a single product to be managed from a single point of access.
Allows an administrator to manage a product from any location (such as their
office, a raised floor area, or a conference room) within the company's
public/private networks.
Enables an administrator to view the most current information about a product
upon accessing the product.
(This easy access provides a single point of product administration that is not
limited to the location of an application or special hardware.)
Protects the authorized rights of users to perform tasks through roles defined
as operators and administrators.
(This protection enables companies to decide who should perform everyday
tasks, such as monitoring product status, and sensitive tasks, such as installing
firmware updates. This flexible approach enables companies to define roles
within their organization while providing a level of security against
unauthorized access.)
Enables users to simply start a web browser, enter the network address of the
product, and log in to start using EWS.
(No additional installation is required. EWS is ready and available to perform
administration tasks once the hardware is installed and connected to the
Ethernet network.)
Allows users to utilize a familiar web browser-based graphical user interface
that uses standard web browser applications for access.
Allows users to obtain assistance in performing tasks through online help.
