The following sections describe how to publish a configuration file to the Cisco CTE 1400 and how to use simulators to preview your page transformations:
When you publish a configuration file to a Cisco CTE 1400, the CTE immediately begins using it to transform web page requests from wireless devices. Publishing a configuration file does not interrupt service on the CTE and does not result in corrupted content.
Because a published configuration file is instantly "live," you might want to set up a CTE that you use only for testing. Once you are assured that your transformations are working properly, you can then publish the configuration file to a CTE used for production.
To publish a configuration file, perform these steps:
This saves the configuration file on your computer. You cannot download a configuration file from a CTE, so make sure that you also save the file on your computer.
Step 2 From the File menu, choose Publish Configuration.
Step 3 Wait until Design Studio displays a message that the configuration is uploaded.
Step 4 Click OK.
Design Studio replaces the configuration file on the CTE with the file you downloaded.
 |
Note If the configuration does not upload successfully, the CTE may be offline or you may have lost your connection to the CTE. For assistance, contact your CTE administrator. |
Design Studio lets you test and browse transformed pages from your desktop using the following simulators and browsers:
By previewing a page, you can verify its appearance and how content is chunked when a transformed page does not fit in a microbrowser screen. You can also follow any links to test them. The CTE prepends its IP address to a link URL so that the page request goes directly to the CTE.
The following sections describe how to use the simulators and browsers to preview page transformations:
The Openwave Mobile Browser Simulator mimics the display of a variety of wireless phones, including Alcatel, Ericsson, Motorola, and Openwave phones.
To preview a page, perform these steps:
The simulator must access transformed pages through the Design Studio connection to the CTE.
Step 2 Double-click the shortcut you created in the "Installing the Openwave Mobile Browser Simulator" section.
Step 3 From the Openwave window File menu, choose Open Configuration.
Step 4 Choose the configuration file for the device type you want to preview.
For example, the configuration file for the Openwave phone is OWG1.pho.
Step 5 Click Open.
Step 6 In the Go field below the Openwave window menu bar, enter the URL to the page you want to preview. You must include the CTE IP address and port number as shown in the following example:
http:// CTE_ip_address:80/http:// page_url
Step 7 Press Enter on your keyboard.
If you receive the message "Security is not enabled," click the Yes button to continue, and then reenter the URL. You may have to do this more than once when you first start the simulator.
The CTE redirects the request to secure mode, transforms the requested page, and sends it to the simulator.

Note Visited locations are listed in the Go drop-down menu in the Openwave window. To quickly return to a location, select it from the Go menu. |
Table 6-1 describes the function of the Openwave Simulator navigation keys and their PC keyboard equivalents.
The Go.Web Simulator mimics the display of a RIM 950 pager and a RIM 957 handheld device.
To preview a page, perform these steps:
The simulator must access transformed pages through the Design Studio connection to the CTE.
Step 2 Double-click the shortcut you created in the "Installing the Go.Web Simulator" section.
Step 3 In the Go.Web Simulator window, click the Handheld button.
Step 4 Using the down arrow on your PC keyboard, move the cursor in the simulator window until Click here to start is highlighted.
Step 5 Press Enter on your PC keyboard.
The simulator window displays a message that it is generating security keys.
Step 6 When the Go.Web Home page displays, use the down arrow to select the http input field.
Step 7 Press Enter on your keyboard.
Step 8 In the input box, enter the URL to the page you want to preview. You must include the CTE IP address and port number as shown in the following example. Note that the initial "http://" is already provided on the Go.Web Home page.
Step 9 Press Enter on your keyboard.
Step 10 On your keyboard, press the down arrow to select Open URL.
Step 11 Press Enter on your keyboard.
The CTE redirects the request to secure mode, transforms the requested page, and sends it to the simulator.

To preview a page in a browser window, perform these steps:
The browser must access transformed pages through the Design Studio connection to the CTE.
Step 2 Open a browser window, either Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator.
Step 3 Enter the URL to the page you want to preview. You must include the CTE IP address and port number as shown in the following example:
http:// CTE_ip_address:80/http:// page_url
Step 4 Press Enter on your keyboard.
The CTE redirects the request to secure mode, transforms the requested page, and sends it to the browser.
