Embedded web-based management method

摘要

Methods and systems for embedded web-based management are disclosed. In some embodiments, an index web page is provided with a link to an uncacheable version control file, and with a script to cause redirection to a uniform resource locator (URL) having a version indicator determined from the version control file. The version indicator allows web caching of current files while ensuring that the cache be updated when the software on the target device is updated. The target device may have an embedded web server configured to enforce caching policies through expiration dates in HTTP response headers. The embedded web server may also be configured to remove version information from the URLs in requests before servicing the requests.
