manage the switch from anywhere on the network through a standard browser such as
Microsoft Internet Explorer.
The Web-Based Management supports Internet Explorer 5.0. It is based on Java Applets
with an aim to reduce network bandwidth consumption, enhance access speed and
present an easy viewing screen.

The user has to explicitly modify the browser setting to enable Java Applets to use
network ports.
