15. Embedded Web Server
The gateway contains an embedded web server (also known as an HTTP
server), which allows users to access the unit’s internal data in a graphical
manner with web browsers such as Microsoft Internet Explorer or Netscape
Navigator. In this way, the unit and connected devices can be monitored,
configured and controlled from across the room or from across the globe.
The ETH-200’s web pages are best viewed with either Internet Explorer version
5.x and later, or Netscape Navigator version 6.x and later. The free
Macromedia Flash player plug-in is also required, and can be obtained at
http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflash
. Always ensure that you have the
latest version of the Flash player installed: if some aspect of the web pages
appears to be displayed unusually, installing the latest Flash player update
usually resolves the problem.
To access the unit’s embedded web server, just enter its configured IP address
into the address (URL) field of your web browser. Accessing the ETH-200’s
web page is the same as surfing the Internet’s world-wide web. Refer to Figure
17 for an example.
