In general, the default settings that come configured on your browser
work well with the Web Interface. The following are recommended
settings that you can use to improve the display features and functionality
of the Web Interface:
After downloading a newer version of the switch image, clear the
browser disk and memory cache to see the updated menu screens.
You must clear the cache while at the main Web Interface Logon
screen, so that all underlying .GIF files are updated.
Check for newer versions of stored pages. Every visit to the page
should be selected as a cache setting.
If you are using Netscape Navigator, configure the cache option to
check for changes "Every Time" you request a page.
If you are using Microsoft Internet Explorer, configure the Temporary
Internet Files setting to check for newer versions of stored pages by
selecting "Every visit to the page."
Images must be auto-loaded.
Use a high-resolution monitor to maximize the amount of information
displayed in the content frame. The recommended resolution is 1024
x 768 pixels. You can also use 800 x 600 pixels.
Turn off one or more of the browser toolbars to maximize the viewing
space of the Web Interface content screen.
Configure the browser to use the following recommended fonts:
Proportional font—Times New Roman
Fixed-width font—Courier New
To access the default home page of the switch, enter the following URL in
your browser:

fields, and click OK .
