The switch can be configured and monitored using WebView,
Alcatel-Lucent’s Web-based device management tool.
WebView software is pre-installed in the switch; you are not
required to load additional software.
Note.
Although WebView software is pre-installed, you
must first enable HTTP sessions for your switch before
you can log in. Refer to
“Unlocking Session Types” on
page 9
for more information.
Browser Compatibility
The following Web browsers are recommended for use with
WebView:
•
Internet Explorer 6.0 and later
•
Firefox 2 or 3
Logging In to WebView
Note.
Before attempting to establish a WebView session,
be sure that you have first unlocked the HTTP session
type via the
aaa authentication
command. Otherwise, a
login error will occur. See
“Unlocking Session Types” on
page 9
for more information.

1
Ensure there is proper IP connectivity between the PC
and the OmniSwitch

Open any Alcatel-Lucent supported Web browser.
3
Enter the switch’s IP address in the browser’s
“Address” field.
