Accessing the CiscoWorks2000 Server

The CiscoWorks2000 server uses port 1741 by default. If you receive an error message that an alternative port is used instead, verify that you entered the correct URL for the server:

http://server_name:port  
 

where server_name is the name of the machine on which CiscoWorks2000 was installed and port is the port number 1741 or the number supplied during installation.

If you still cannot access the server, enter the following command at a DOS prompt to make sure your server is running:

ping server_name
 

If you get a message that the server is "alive" and get a proxy error when you try to connect to the server, make sure the proxy is set up correctly. If your server is configured to use a proxy server outside the firewall, you will get proxy errors if you configured the proxy to ignore requests to a certain machine, set of machines, or domain.

You specify a proxy server in Netscape Navigator under Edit>Preferences>Advanced>Proxies and in Internet Explorer under Tools>Internet Options>Connections>LAN Settings.

Your proxy is set up incorrectly if:
