2.10 Web Interface
A web browser can connect to any of the following:
- Directly to the URL of the Director on the same system as the browser
- Directly to the URL of the Director on a remote system
- Indirectly to a remote WCCProxy, by first opening a direct connection to the Director on the local or a remote system
The web interface can monitor multiple nodes by communicating with the WCCProxys on multiple systems. You can establish a direct connection to the Director on any system reachable by its TCP/IP socket port, and, through that connection, view the SEA processes on other nodes via Director-to-WCCProxy communication.
You do not need to have WEBES installed or running on the same system as the web browser in order to connect to the Director on a remote system.
See Chapter 6 for more details about the web interface and Appendix C for a list of supported web browsers.
