Starting the Web Administration interface

To set up the features on Avaya IR, you can use the Web Administration interface or the command-line interface.

Note:
Avaya recommends using the Web Administration interface until you are familiar with the administration commands.

To start the Web Administration interface:

1. Start a Web browser.

   To run Netscape locally on the Avaya IR platform, from the UNIX prompt, type netscape and press Enter.

   If you are accessing Avaya IR from another computer, start the browser as you normally do on that system. This computer must be on the same data network as the Avaya IR system.

2. In the browser address field, enter http://domain where domain is the domain name of the Avaya IR system.

   The domain name is specified when the system is installed and set up for the first time.

   The system displays the Web Administration entry screen.

3. Select Web Administration.

   The browser displays the Login screen.

4. Log in to the system using an account with root or administration privileges.

   The system displays the Web Administration screen, the entry point for the Web Administration interface.

Note:
If the Web Administration screen is not displaying correctly, click the Refresh button on the browser toolbar or re-enter the domain name. Check that you have entered the domain name and not the IP address.

When using the domain name or the IP address, you may need to adjust the Web browser settings to bypass the proxy server for the domain name or specific IP address of the Avaya IR server. See the online help for your Web browser for more information.
