Using online help
Both the MONITOR and CONFIGURE tabs have a Help page button. When
you click the Help page button, the online help opens in another browser
window. Each of the Manager UI pages has online help available.
Accessing the command-line interface
You can access the command-line interface using one of two methods:
✔ Provide a serial connection to the Intel NetStructure Cache Appliance
machine. Refer to the Intel NetStructure Cache Appliance Quick Start Guide
for detailed information.
✔ Access the machine through a telnet connection. This method requires you to
enter a telnet Administrator ID and password. Refer to Changing the
administrator password for telnet or serial access‚ on page 60 for
information on this ID and password.
For information on using the command-line interface, refer to Chapter 1‚ Using
the Command-Line Interface.

1
From the Monitor tab in the Manager UI, click the Protocols button.
2
Make a note of the current HTTP User Agent Total Document Bytes
statistic.
3
Set your browser to the Intel NetStructure Cache Appliance proxy port.
4
Browse the Internet.
5
Check the HTTP User Agent Total Document Bytes value.
This value should have increased if caching is working.
Changing passwords
Two IDs and passwords exist for each appliance: one to access the Manager UI
and one to access the CLI when you are connected to the appliance through a
telnet or serial connection. By default, the appliance uses
admin
for both the
Administrator’s ID and password in each case.
For a given Manager UI session, an ID and password are required the first time
you access an appliance or the cluster, or when you attempt to connect to a node
through a telnet connection. The Administrator’s ID and password are unique for
each node in the cluster. It is recommended that you change the default
