WEBLink Service Parameters

This chapter describes the configurable parameters in the WEBLink Service. The WEBLink Service supports the web-based Transcend interface to 3Com products. Table 138 lists the WEBLink Service parameters and commands.

Table 138 WEBLink Service Parameters and Commands

Parameters

Commands

CONTrol

SETDefault, SHow

DocumentPath

SETDefault, SHow

StatPollInterval

SETDefault, SHow

WebManager

ADD, Delete, SHow


CONTrol

Syntax

SETDefault -WEBLink CONTrol = ([WebLink | NoWebLink], [Help | NoHelp])
SHow -WEBLink CONTrol

Default

WebLink, Help

Description

The CONTrol parameter controls the availability of the Web Link application on the bridge/router and specifies whether or not the help files are accessible through the Web Link help interface. This parameter provides the same functionality as the -SYS NetAccess parameter.

Values

WebLink

Specifies that all HTTP access is allowed.

NoWebLink

Specifies that all HTTP access is denied.

Help

Enables a help frame at the bottom of each page.

NoHelp

Disables the help frame at the bottom of the page. This provides more screen space for the configuration page.


DocumentPath

Syntax

SETDefault -WEBLink DocumentPath = "http://host.name.path"
SHow -WEBLink DocumentPath

Default

http://infodeli.3com.com/infodeli/tools/bridrout/u_guides/html/nb110

Description

The DocumentPath parameter specifies the path to the user documentation pages. If these pages reside on an HTTP server, the format should be as follows:

http://host.name/path

If the target pages reside on a local drive, the format should be as follows:
file:///x:/path/

where x identifies the drive designator.

When this parameter is set to "/path/" or "X:/path", it is assumed to be pointing to the local file system and the string "file:///" is prepended. In addition, if a colon ":" is entered int to the text string, it is replaced with a pipe "|". For example, if you enter" c:/dir1/dir2" the NETBuilder bridge/router replaces it as follows:

file:///c|dir1/dir2

Since both InfoDeli and the documentation CD-ROM contain the following path segment, it is appended to whatever path is configured using the DocumentPath parameter:

/family/REF/svc_pname.html

When reading from the documentation CD-ROM, you can omit the path. In this case, all that is needed is the following:

File: //X:

where X is the CDROM drive designator.

Example

SETDefault -WEBLink DocumentPath = "http://localstore.com/help/"

To reset the default 3Com website path enter:

SETDefault -WEBLink DocumentPath = ""

where ("") the double quotation marks represents a null text string.


StatPollInterval

Syntax

SETDefault -WEBLink StatPollInterval = <value> (0-120)
SHow -WEBLink StatPollInterval

Default

60 (minutes)

Description

The StatPollInterval parameter specifies the time interval in minutes which represents one bar in a Web Link bar graph. When a value of zero (0) is specified for this parameter, statistic samples are not collected.


WebManager

Syntax

ADD -WEBLink WebManager <IP address>
DELete -WEBLink WebManager {<IP address> | ALL}
SHow -WEBLink WebManager

Default

*.*.*.* (HTTP requests from all address are accepted.)

Description

The WebManager parameter specifies IP addresses of devices that can connect to the bridge/router using the HTTP Protocol. You can use the WebManager parameter to provide limited security at the HTTP level for network management purposes. The WebManager service parameter and the TelnetManager SYStem service parameter modify the same list, therefore modifying one list will affect the other. To disable access via Telnet, see the NetAccess parameter.

You can add a maximum of six entries to the IP address list. Wild card format is allowed at each byte position of the address.

You can delete addresses one at a time by specifying the address, or delete all addresses by specifying the keyword ALL.

All addresses that are added or deleted take effect immediately. Deleting an address does not affect an existing HTTP connection to the address that is already established.

You can display the IP address list using the SHow command.

The default value of *.*.*.* (indicates 255.255.255.255) in the address list allows the bridge/router to accept HTTP connections from every station.
