Proxy Server
We recommend that you access this service directly, not through a proxy server.
Note • If using a proxy server, specifying the machine's IP address in the browser results in slower
responses, and could prevent some screens from appearing. In this case, set the machine's IP
address on the browser not to use a proxy server. For information on the setting instructions, refer to
the documentation provided with your browser.
Port Number
The default port number of this service is "80". The port number can be changed in
[Properties] > [Connectivity] > [Protocols] > [HTTP]. Usable ports are "1" to "65535".
If you set the port to a number other than 80, you must add ":" and the port number after
the IP address or the Internet address when entering the address into your browser.
For example, if the port number is 8080, the URL is:

You can check the port number in a Configuration Report. For information on the Configuration Report, refer to "4 Machine

To use this service, perform the following procedure on your computer.
1 Start up the computer, and a web browser.
2 Enter the machine's IP address or Internet address in the browser address field, and press

domain name server, you can access the machine using the URL with the combination of the host
name and the domain name. For example, if the host name is "myhost", and the domain name is
"example.com", then the Internet address is "myhost.example.com".
• Ask your system administrator for the IP address or Internet address.
