Introduction
This chapter explains how to access the switch browser-based interface (BBI) for the SmartPanel and configure the

PC or workstation with network access to the switch
•
Frame-capable Web-browser software, such as the following:
•
Netscape Navigator 4.7x or higher
•
Internet Explorer 6.0x or higher
•
JavaScript enabled in your Web browser

NOTE: JavaScript is not the same as Java™. Be sure that JavaScript is enabled in your Web browser.

1. Start your Web browser.

enter the IP address:
