Overview of the Web Management Interface
The AS series switches contain an embedded web server and management software that can be used
to manage and monitor switch functions. Without configuration of these management functions the
switch will act as a simple unmanaged switch. However, by utilizing the advanced features contained
in the management software the switch can be used to improve the overall performance of your
network.
The web-based management interface allows you to configure and monitor your switch via a
standard web browser. From the web browser you can configure all switch features, such as VLAN’s,
Port Aggregation, QoS and ACL’s.
Using a Web Browser to Access the Switch
