For Administrators accessing the R3000 GUI via Google Chrome, most features are supported. There are a small number of features within the R3000 that will not work. For the time being Google Chrome is not officially supported for access to the R3000, Enterprise Reporter, and Threat Analysis Reporter management consoles. Customers should use the supported web browsers of Internet Explorer, Firefox, or Safari to access the R3000, Enterprise Reporter and Threat Analysis Reporter management consoles. Once Google Chrome is no longer considered beta by Google, 8e6 will move to support Google Chrome for use with all management interfaces.

These are the versions that are in the PDF on our website.

Google Chrome 13.0
Internet Explorer 8.0
Mozilla Firefox 6.0
