Overview
The MGC Web Server Manager application is the user interface to the 
MGC Web Server. It allows the user to communicate via the Web Server 
with the MCUs. It provides database access via the Web pages and manages 
the Web site that contains the reservation pages.
MGC Web Server Architecture
The MGC Web site is a location on a computer network. It contains 
reservation information in the form of pages that can be accessed by users 
logging into the site with browser applications such as Microsoft Internet 
Explorer or Netscape Communicator.
The Internet client connects to the Web site located on the Internet server 
and, via the MGC Web Server, gains access to the reservation pages, the 
database tables, and the MCU that runs the conference.
