Stand-Alone Web-based System Manager

Web-based System Manager applications can be run on an AIX machine with Web-based System Manager installed just like other AIX applications. When Web-based System Manager applications are run in this method, no data is transferred over the network. Running Web-based System Manager applications in stand-alone mode requires a graphics terminal.
