10. Web Configuration Interface
The Web Configuration Interface is a Java-based utility that allows administrators to configure KVM network and security settings, create and manage
user accounts, and upgrade the IP portion of the KVM firmware. The sections that follow tell you how to log into the Web Configuration Interface, and
use the different settings available to the KVM administrators.
Note:
The Web Configuration Interface controls settings/accounts for the IP portion of the KVM only. Settings/account access for the local console
are set via the Local Console OSD.
11. Logging into the Web Configuration Interface
Logging In
1. Open your web browser and enter the IP address assigned to the KVM.
Note:
• Only SSL connections are allowed, so you must start the IP address
with HTTPS, and not HTTP.)
• When logging in using a Windows XP computer, add
/ui.jnlp
to the
end of the IP address.
2. If a screen appears that states there is a problem with the web
site’s security certificate, click on the option to proceed anyway; the
certificate can be trusted. The Log On page appears, and the Java-
based application begins to install.

installation. Click the option to continue.
