SLC™ Console Manager User Guide 44
5: Web and Command Line Interfaces
The SLC console manager offers three interfaces for configuring the SLC unit: a command line
interface (CLI), a web interface, and an LCD with keypads on the front panel. This chapter
discusses the web and command line interfaces. (Chapter 4: Quick Setup includes instructions for
using the LCD to configure basic network settings.)
Note: The features and functionality described in this chapter specific to PC Card use
are supported on SLC -02 part numbers. The features and functionality specific to USB
port use are supported on SLC -03 part numbers.
Web Interface
A web interface allows the system administrator and other authorized users to configure and
manage the SLC console manager using most web browsers (Firefox, Chrome or Internet
Explorer with JavaScript enabled). The Web Telnet and Web SSH features require Java 1.1 (or
later) support in the browser. The SLC device provides a secure, encrypted web interface over
SSL (secure sockets layer).
Note: The web server listens for requests on the unencrypted (HTTP) port (port 80) and
redirects all requests to the encrypted (HTTPS) port (port 443).
