JavaScript and Cookies

Be sure JavaScript and Cookies are enabled in the browser. Refer to the documentation for your browser
for instructions.

Navigation Toolbar

Do not use the browser navigation toolbar buttons Back, Forward, or Refresh/Reload with the VPN 3002
Hardware Client Manager unless instructed to do so. To protect access security, clicking Refresh/Reload
automatically logs out the Manager session. Clicking Back or Forward might display stale Manager
screens with incorrect data or settings.

We recommend that you hide the browser navigation toolbar to prevent mistakes while using the
VPN 3002 Hardware Client Manager.

Recommended PC Monitor/Display Settings

For optimal use, we recommend setting your monitor or display:

Desktop area = 1024 x 768 pixels or greater. Minimum = 800 x 600 pixels.

Color palette = 256 colors or higher.

Connecting to the VPN 3002 Using HTTP

When your system administration tasks and network permit a cleartext connection between the VPN
3002 and your browser, you can use the standard HTTP protocol to connect to the system.

Even if you plan to use HTTPS, you use HTTP at first to install an SSL certificate in your browser.

1.

Bring up the browser.

2.

In the browser Address or Location

field, you can just enter the VPN 3002 private interface IP

address; for example, 10.10.147.2. The browser automatically assumes and supplies an http://
prefix.

The browser displays the VPN 3002 Hardware Client Manager login screen.
