# Alternative methods for accessing the Management Client

As an alternative to downloading and installing the Management Client on each workstation that an administrator uses, you can run the Management Client in a web browser, or you can download the Management Client from the Management Server.

- SMC Web Access — You can enable the feature on the Management Server or Web Portal Server. Administrators log on to the Management Client on a web page, and the Management Client runs as an HTML5 application in the web browser. The web browser is the only requirement on the workstation.
- SMC downloads — You can enable the feature on the Management Server. Administrators download and install the Management Client from the SMC Downloads web page.
