Configuring a Browser for the Vault Web Interface

To administer the Vault or a specific Job, you can log in to the WAFS Vault web interface. The URL (IP address) of the interface is defined during installation (e.g., http://localhost:711). You may need to install the Java Runtime Environment (JRE).

If WAFS is using a port other than 80, you need to specify the port number in the URL. e.g., http://vault8.yourCompany.com:711/

If your browser is configured for very strict security, you may need to edit the browser settings to allow you to download the JRE.
