The DVS 304 features an on-board Web server, displayed as a set of default Web
pages. These pages allow you to control and operate the DVS 304 unit through
its Ethernet port, connected via a LAN or WAN, using a Web browser such as
Microsoft’s Internet Explorer (version 5.5 or higher), or Netscape Navigator
(version 6.0 or higher).
This chapter describes these default Web pages, which are always available and
cannot be erased or overwritten.
Accessing and Using the Web Server
Access the DVS 304 through the on-board Web server pages as follows:
1. Double click the Web browser icon on your Windows desktop to launch your
Web browser.
2 . Click in the browser’s Address field.
3 . Enter the unit’s IP address in the browser’s Address field.
N If the local system administrators have not changed the value, the factory-
specified default, 192.168.254.254, is the correct value for this field.
4 . If you want the browser to display a page other than the default page (such as
a custom page that you have created and uploaded), enter a slash (/) and the
file name to open.
N The browser’s Address field should display the address in the following format:
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/{optional_file_name.html}
The following characters are invalid in file names: {space} ~ @ = ‘ [ ] { }
< > ’ “ ; : | \ and ?.
5 . Press the keyboard Enter key.
The DVS 304 checks to see if it is password protected.
If it is not password protected, proceed to step 7.
If it is password protected, the DVS 304 downloads the Enter Network
Password page (figure 4-1).
