described in the following section.
NOTE: To use the Web Manager, obtain your ACS console server’s IP address. The console server may be set
up with a static IP address at your site. By default, the console server uses the IP address provided by the DHCP
server. If your network does not use DHCP, then the console server defaults to 192.168.160.10.
Selecting a security profile using the Web Manager
After the initial configuration, connect to the Web Manager by entering the IP address of the
console server in a supported browser.
NOTE: Once you log in to the Web Manager, a Security Profile must be selected to further configure console
server using the Web Manager. For this reason your browser redirects to Wizard - Step1: Security Profiles.
Selecting a Security Profile
Select a pre-defined Security Profile or define a Custom profile for specific services. The
profiles are:
• Secured - Disables all protocols except sshv2, HTTPS and SSH to Serial Ports.
• Moderate - Enables sshv1, sshv2, HTTP, HTTPS, Telnet, SSH and Raw connections to Serial
Ports, ICMP and HTTP redirection to HTTPS.
• Open - Enables Telnet, sshv1, sshv2, HTTP, HTTPS, SNMP, RPC, ICMP, SSH and Raw
connections to Serial Ports.
• Default - Sets the profile to the same configuration as Moderate profile.
• Custom - Allows custom configuration of individual protocols and services.
