How to access Server from web Browser

Started by Navneet June 26, 2006
Hi,

I had made a simple web server on VxWorks for the vxSim i.e.  the
simulator. I have installed the network interface for it on the host,
so i can ping the simulator from the host computer.

Now, i want to communicate to the server, which is the simulator,
through the web browser like internet explorer.

Can someone guide me if anything on the host machine or on the server
needs to be configured for the browser to access the server.

Thanks in advance.

Regards 
Navneet

Normally not, unless your web server is expecting connections in a non-standard port. http://simulator-ip-address/ or http://simulator-ip-address:port/ should work.
