Monitoring Events
Purpose
Use the monitoring functionality to view the events page.
Action
To monitor events select Monitor>Events and Alarms>View Events in the J-Web user interface.
 | Note: When you use an HTTPS connection in the Microsoft Internet Explorer browser to save a report from this page in the J-Web interface, the error message "Internet Explorer was not able to open the Internet site" is displayed. This problem occurs because the Cache-Control: no cache HTTP header is added on the server side and Internet Explorer does not allow you to download the encrypted file with the Cache-Control: no cache HTTP header set in the response from the server. As a workaround, refer to Microsoft Knowledge Base article 323308, which is available at this URL: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/323308. Also, you can alternatively use HTTP in the Internet Explorer browser or use HTTPS in the Mozilla Firefox browser to save a file from this page. |
