The Web Configurator
3.1
Overview
This chapter describes how to access the NBG4604 Web Configurator and provides
an overview of its screens.
The Web Configurator is an HTML-based management interface that allows easy
setup and management of the NBG4604 via Internet browser. Use Internet
Explorer 7.0 and later or Firefox 1.5 and later. The recommended screen
resolution is 1024 by 768 pixels.
In order to use the Web Configurator you need to allow:
Web browser pop-up windows from your device. Web pop-up blocking is enabled
by default in Windows XP SP (Service Pack) 2.
JavaScript (enabled by default).
Java permissions (enabled by default).
Refer to the Troubleshooting chapter to see how to make sure these functions are
allowed in Internet Explorer.
3.2
Login Accounts
There are two system accounts that you can use to log in to the NBG4604:
“admin”
and
“supervisor”
. These two accounts have different privilege levels.
The web configurator screens vary depending on which account you use to log in.
The
supervisor
account allows you full access to all system configurations. The
default supervisor user name is “supervisor” and password ¡s “supervisor”.
With the
admin
account, you cannot access
Remote MGMT
screens and can only
view the
Sys OP Mode
screen. The default username is “admin” and password is
“1234”.
