The network and PC administration cost is reduced and efficiency greatly improved. The RemoteManagement program consists of two major components: Client (Client) and Administration Console (Console). The Client is implemented as an HTTP server (or WWW server). Once the PC is installed with Client (Client PC), network administrator can use Internet browser, such as Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer, to access the Client PC's critical information including: General Information -- OS & version, CPU, BIOS & version, memory, and etc. System Information -- Disk drive, peripherals, controllers, serial and parallel ports, system devices, and etc. Network Information -- Network identification, DNS information, network adapter configuration, TCP/IP information, and etc. You can also snapshot the screen of the Client PC through the browser. The Console allows an easy and efficient management of Client PCs from a centralized console. Instead of searching the Client PC one by one through the Internet browser, the Console automatically searches all Client PCs on the same network and presents a simplified management interface. That means, you can easily manage your PC resources/asset with just a click away. From small to mid-sized network, RemoteManagement program is definitely the PC and network management tool you must have. 3.2 System Requirement Hardware Requirements Console: Any PC running Windows 95/98 or NT. Monitor display with minimum resolution of 800 x 600 is recommended. Client: Any PC running Windows 95/98 with our network card installed. Currently Windows NT is not supported. Software Requirements Console: Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0 and above or Netscape Navigator 4.0 and above is required Client: Network driver for our network adapter must be configured and loaded. TCP/IP protocol and Client for Microsoft Network are required. 3.3 Installation Procedure Run Web_104.EXE program in this CD-ROM. Specify the Destination folder, select the components you want to install, and specify the Program folder. Make sure you add long file name support to NetWare server if you want to put the Destination folder in the NetWare server. The SETUP program will copy all necessary files to the Destination folder and create the Program folder. Run RemoteManagement Client on the PCs to be managed by Console. Run the RemoteManagement Console from the Program folder or run the Internet browser directly to manage Client PCs. 3.4 Operation Instructions 1. RemoteManagement Client Run the Client software from the Program folder. The Client icon will reside in the Windows task bar once the Client software is launched. 1.1 Configuration of the RemoteManagement Client Click the Client icon. The General page shows the general information, software version, and the running status. Clicks Start/Stop toggle button to start/stop the Client. Click Option to disable or enable the option of auto-run at startup. The default setting is enabled. You can also specify the port number at which the Client will receive requests. Click Apply to make change effective immediately. Click Security to configure the user name and password to protect the Client PC from unauthorized access. Click Apply to make change effective immediately. To access a Client PC's information, the Client program must be running and user name and password must be authenticated. 1.2 Open About page Click the right button over the Client icon and select About to view the information. Same information can also be accessed by clicking the Client icon. 1.3 Stop the RemoteManagement Client and quit Click the right button over the Client icon and select Exit. Or select STOP and OK under the General page. After removed or Stopped, the manger will loss the connection to this Client. 2. Management of RemoteManagement Clients 2.1 Without RemoteManagement Console RemoteManagement Console is not absolutely required to manage the Clients. You can use your favorite browser without any extra software or plug-ins. This is ideal solution if you are not using Navigator 4.0 and up or IE 4.0 and up. Launch the browser and enter the Client PC's computer name or IP address in the Location or Address field. You will be asked to enter user name and password for authentication. Click OK with both user name and password fields blank if the Client does NOT set the security check. 2.2 With RemoteManagement Console RemoteManagement Console provides an easy access of all Clients without knowing their computer names or IP addresses. The Console will search all the Client PCs on the same network and present a list of found Client PCs for you to select. Click the Client PC you want to manage from the list. Authentication of user name and password for every individual Client is required. The user name and password can be saved for future log on. Click Magic Packet to remotely wake up a sleeping PC on the network by sending a Magic Packet. Click Refresh anytime to start another search of the Clients. 3. Using the RemoteManagement Console RemoteManagement Console is a plug-in program written in HTML language that can be installed in any Windows 95/98/NT system and working with Netscape Navigator 4.0 and up and Microsoft IE 4.0 and up. Launch the Console from the Program folder and your system's default Internet browser will be activated. The Console will automatically search the Client PCs on the same network for about 5 to 10 seconds after the Welcome page appears. The Console interface is divided into two size-adjustable panels: the left panel is a list of found Client PCs and the right panel is the Client PC information. Click the Client PC listed in the left panel and enter user name and password to access the Client's PC information. Clink the Refresh to start another search of the Clients. 3.5 Un-install Remote View For Windows 95/98, just click on "Startup" -> "Settings" -> "Control Panel" -> "Add/Remove Program". Find the "Web Management Kit" and then click on "Add/Remove" button to remove it. 3.6 Know Bugs You may get an error message when launching the configuration program of Client on Windows 95 with version of 4.00.950 and 4.00.950A. To solve this problem, install Internet Explorer 3.0 (Build 1215) or above on this Windows 95, or upgrade this Windows 95 to version 4.00.950B (OSR2 or above). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A Troubleshooting If you experience any problems with the adapter, first make sure the appropriate driver is loaded, and the proper cable is connected to the adapter port. (Cat. 5 UTP for 100Mbps, Cat. 3,4,5 for 10Mbps) Then the hub should comply with the adapter specification, such as 10Mbps 10Base-T or 100Mbps 100Base-TX, then check the LED. Secondly, most common factors that cause an adapter to fail are configuration conflicts and cabling problems. PCI cards shouldn't have any conflict problem due the plug and play specification. Use the adapter LED indicators and Diagnostic Program. For information on the Diagnostic Program, please see Setup program. If the problem persists, call your dealer for help. The adapter provides two LED indicators to indicate network status. 10M/Link/Activity A yellow LED indicates if the 10Mbps UTP has been LINK ok or not. When the light is OFF, it indicates that the 10Mbps UTP port has not been connected or LINK not ok. When the light is ON, it indicates that the 10Mbps UTP port LINK ok. When the light is BLINKING, it indicates that there is traffic flow on the network the adapter is connected to. 100M/Link/Activity A green LED indicates if the 100Mbps UTP has been LINK ok or not. When the light is OFF, it indicates that the 100Mbps UTP port has not been connected or LINK not ok. When the light is ON, it indicates that the 100Mbps UTP port LINK ok. When the light is BLINKING, it indicates that there is traffic flow on the network the adapter is connected to. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- B Product Specification Standard : IEEE 802.3u, 100Base-TX, 10Base-T Transmission rate : 10 /20, 100/200Mbps, Auto-Negotiation Hardware : PCI bus Spec.
