UPS Network Management Card 2 User’s Guide28
Web User Interface
Introduction
Overview
The Web user interface provides options to manage the UPS and the UPS Network Management Card 2
(NMC) and to view the status of the UPS.
See “Web” on page 57 for information on how to select, enable, and disable the protocols that
control access to the user interface and to define the Web-server ports for the protocols.
Supported Web browsers
You can use Microsoft
®
Internet Explorer
®
(IE) 7.x or higher (on Windows
®
operating systems only) or
Mozilla
®
Firefox
®
3.0.6 or higher (on all operating systems) to access the NMC through its user interface.
Other commonly available browsers might work but have not been fully tested.
The
NMC cannot work with a proxy server. Before you can use a browser to access the user interface of the
NMC, you must do one of the following:
• Configure the browser to disable the use of a proxy server for the
NMC.
• Configure the proxy server so that it does not proxy the specific IP address of the NMC.
How to Log On
Overview
You can use the DNS name or the System IP address of the NMC for the URL address of the user interface. Use
your case-sensitive user name and password to log on. The default user name differs by account type:
• apc for Administrator
• device for a Device User
• readonly for a Read-Only User
The default password is apc for all three account types.
You can set your user interface language as you log on by choosing a language from the Language drop-down
box. See “Adding and Changing Language Packs” on page 80.
When HTTPS is enabled, the NMC generates its own certificate. This certificate negotiates
encryption methods with your browser. Refer to the Security Guide on the CD or on the
www.apc.com website for more details.
URL address formats
Type the DNS name or IP address of the NMC in the Web browser’s URL address field and press ENTER. When
you specify a non-default Web server port in Internet Explorer, you must include
http:// or https://
in the URL.
