1.2.5 Verifying the Web browser and its settings required for the monitoring console

A Web browser must be installed on the monitoring console host for the purpose of checking the operation monitoring data collected by Performance Management and for changing Performance Management settings. For smooth startup of Performance Management operation, we recommend that you verify the information provided here before you install Performance Management. If Performance Management has already been installed, you can still verify the information before you log in to Performance Management from the monitoring console.

Required Web browser

Either Internet Explorer or Firefox is required on the monitoring console host. For details about the versions of these Web browsers that are supported by Performance Management, see the Release Notes.

• Page cache can be checked by page or automatically.

• The language to be displayed is set.

• JavaScript is enabled.

• Files can be downloaded.

• Images (GIF data) can be displayed.

• Cookies are enabled.
