About cookies

The embedded Web server (EWS) places very small text files (cookies) on your hard drive when you are

browsing. These files let the EWS recognize your computer the next time you visit. For example, if you have

configured the EWS language, a cookie helps remember which language you have selected so that the next

time you access the EWS, the pages are displayed in that language. Some cookies (such as the cookie that

stores customer-specific preferences) are stored on the computer until you clear them manually.
