The web browser caches pages/folders that you have viewed in the computer’s memory.

page in Internet Explorer navigate to Administrative Settings� Device
Configuration� Device Services and click the FTP enabled checkbox to turn off
FTP. Click the Apply Changes button.

Note: All user downloaded files are displayed on the web in the /user/web
folder.

web page. Notice that the values update as soon as the browser refreshes, but that the
screen doesn’t blink each time.
52. Type a new value into the blank field on the right-hand screen (post.html). Click the
Set tag button and notice that the value updates on the left-hand screen (get.asp) and
in RSLogix 5000.
Backup and Restore Web Pages and Data Views
There are several items that are stored on the web server module that you might want
to archive in a backup copy:
• User accounts and passwords
• Data views
• Custom web pages
Furthermore, Acme may wish to create the same EWEB module over and over again,
without having to start from scratch. Using backup and restore, Acme can easily
copy one setup configuration to many modules.
