What the HTTP Server Does
The HTTP Server is a graphical user interface (GUI) that lets you view real-time
device summaries, events, alerts, and statistics. Users with appropriate privileges
can also save or clear the event log, enable and disable connections, and perform
administrative functions such as resetting a slot, rebooting the router, managing
files and volumes, and setting the date and time. The HTTP Server graphically
displays information similar to (and a superset of) the text-only information
available through the BCC
