The Start Page can be started by entering the IP address and URL of the CanogaView
Smart Element Manager server and web page in the “Address” feature within any web
browser.

The example that follows shows the result of entering the URL

http://192.168.1.8:8080/nms

in the “Address” field of IE’s web browser (substitute the IP address of your CanogaView
Smart Element Server for 192.168.1.8 in the example shown). Subsequently, this URL or
any other URL within CanogaView Smart Element Manager can be saved as a “Favorite” for
future access so long as the SNMP Agent or the addresses of any of the components have
not changed.

Note: the DNS host name could be used in place of the IP address. Also, the text in
this URL is case sensitive.
