The Web Console
The Web console is the central point for monitoring OfficeScan throughout
the corporate network. The console comes with a set of default settings
and values that you can configure based on your security requirements
and specifications. The Web console uses standard Internet technologies,
such as Java, CGI, HTML, and HTTP.
Use the Web console to do the following:
Manage clients installed on
networked computers
Group clients into logical domains
for simultaneous configuration and management
Set scan configurations and
initiate manual scan on a single or multiple networked computers
Configure notifications about
security risks on the network and view logs sent by clients
Configure outbreak criteria
and notifications
Delegate Web console administration
tasks to other OfficeScan administrators by configuring roles and user
accounts
Opening the Web Console
Open the Web console from any computer on the network that has the following
resources:
300MHz Intel™ Pentium™ processor
or equivalent
128MB of RAM
At least 30MB of available disk
space
Monitor that supports 800 x
600 resolution at 256 colors or higher
Microsoft Internet Explorer™

On the Web browser, type one of the following in the address bar based
on the type of OfficeScan server installation:

If you upgraded from a previous
version of OfficeScan, Web browser and proxy server cache files may prevent
the OfficeScan Web console from loading properly. Clear the cache memory
on the browser and on any proxy servers located between the OfficeScan
server and the computer you use to access the Web console.
Logon Account
During OfficeScan server installation, Setup creates a root account
and prompts you to type the password for this account. When opening the
Web console for the first time, type "root" as the user name
and the root account password. If you forget the password, contact your
support provider for help in resetting the password.
Define user roles and set up user accounts to allow other users to access
the Web console without using the root account. When users log on to the
console, they can use the user accounts you have set up for them. For
more information, see Role-based
Administration.
The Web Console Banner
The banner area of the Web console provides you the following options:
Web console banner area
<account name>: Click
the account name (for example, root) to modify details for the account,
such as the password
Log Off: Logs you off from the
Web console
