Using the Appliance Web Interface
Web Interface Browser Requirements
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). 
The Cisco Web Security Appliance follows the Target Environments set by YUI:

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.
Enabling Access to the Web Interface on Virtual Appliances 
By default, the HTTP and HTTPS interfaces are not enabled on virtual appliances. To enable these 
protocols, you must use the command-line interface. 
Step 1
Access the command-line interface. See 
Step 2
Run the 
interfaceconfig
 command. 
Pressing Enter at a prompt accepts the default value. 
Look for the prompts for HTTP and HTTPS and enable the protocol(s) that you will use.
