All users accessing the web interface must log in. Type your username and password, and 
then click Login to access the web interface. You must use a supported web browser (see 
“Browser Requirements” on page 20). You can log in with the admin account or any other 
user account created in the appliance. For more information creating appliance users, see 
“Administering User Accounts” on page 497.

After you log in, the Monitor > Overview page displays. 

To access the web interface, your browser must support and be enabled to accept JavaScript 
and cookies. It must be able to render HTML pages containing Cascading Style Sheets (CSS). 
For example, you can use the following browsers:

• Firefox 1.0 and later

• Internet Explorer 6.02 and later (Windows only)

• Mozilla 1.76 and later

• Netscape 7.1 and later

• Safari 2.0.4 and later (Mac OS X only)

Your session automatically times out after 30 minutes of inactivity.

Some buttons and links in the web interface cause additional windows to open. Therefore, 
you may need to configure the browser’s pop-up blocking settings in order to use the web 
interface.

Note — Only use one browser window or tab at a time to edit the appliance configuration. 
Also, do not edit the appliance using the web interface and the CLI at the same time. Editing 
the appliance from multiple places concurrently results in unexpected behavior and is not 
supported.

Use the Monitor tab to monitor the appliance by viewing dynamic data on website activity 
and appliance activity and action. 

The Monitor tab includes the following pages:

• Overview

• L4 Traffic Monitor

• Web Activity

• Malware  Risk

• Web Site Activity

• Anti-Malware
