Portal: Activating the Web Client

Each entry in the Web Client Offline Area list includes its URL and indicates whether it is already configured for web access. If web access has not been activated, the Activate Web Access option will be enabled and the Get Web Access Details and Remove Web Access options will be disabled and their icons greyed out.

To enable web access to an Offline Area:

1    Click in the list entry to highlight it

2    Click Activate Web Access.

The HTTP Client Download URL dialog is displayed containing a sample message that you can send to users, giving them the access details they will need to begin using the Web Client. Copy the information from the dialog and e-mail it to your users.

Once an Offline Area has been enabled for Web Client, you can display the sample message using the Get Web Access Details option.

Notes

    The selected Offline Area must include a Client Kit.

    In order to install the Web Client, users must have administrator privileges on their computer and will need the Java runtime to be installed and enabled in their web browser.
