Using a Web Browser Interface

30
After you have set the initial IP address, you can configure, manage, and
troubleshoot the access point from a remote location using a web browser
interface. The web browser interface has been tested using Internet
Explorer. Remotely accessing the access point using other browsers may
provide unpredictable results. When using the web browser interface, keep
the following points in mind:
• Your session terminates if you do not use it for 15 minutes.
• Command Console mode is not available.
Note: If you access the Internet using a proxy server, you must add the IP
address of the access point to your Exceptions list. The Exceptions list
contains the addresses that you do not want to use with a proxy server.
To use a web browser interface
1 Determine the IP address of the access point. If a DHCP server assigned
the IP address, you must get the IP address from the DHCP server.
2 Start the web browser application.
3 Access the access point using one of these methods:
• In the Address field (Internet Explorer) or in the Location field
(Netscape Communicator), enter the IP address, and press Enter.
• From the File menu, choose Open (Internet Explorer) or choose
Open Page (Netscape Communicator). In the field, enter the IP
address and press Enter.
The Access Point Login screen appears.
4 If necessary, enter a user name and a password. The default user name is
Intermec and the default password is Intermec. You can define a user
name and password. For help, see "Setting Up Logins" on page 140.
Or you may want to log in to a secure session.
