Troubleshooting WebView

The WebView login screen does not display.

This suggests either a physical or network connection issue. 
Try the following options:

Be sure your computer has a valid Ethernet connection 

and has IP connectivity to the switch.

Verify that all required WebView image files are 
installed in the current running directory. Refer to the 

Switch Management Guide

 for more information.

The login screen displays, but the login fails.

This suggests either a user name and password or Authenti-
cated Switch Access error. Try the following options:

Check that you are using the correct user name and 

password. If you have already changed the user name and 
password for your switch, be sure to use the new informa-
tion. If you have not changed the user name and password, 
the factory defaults are 

admin

 and 

switch

, respectively.

Be sure that you have “unlocked” HTTP sessions on the 

switch. To unlock HTTP sessions, enter the following 
command:

-> aaa authentication http local
