Starting the Web-Based Switch Configuration Utility
This section describes how to navigate the web-based switch configuration utility.
Browsers have the following restrictions:
•
If you are using Internet Explorer 8, open a browser window and configure
the following settings:
Click
Tools
>
Internet Options
and then select the
Security
tab. Select
Local Intranet
and click
Sites
. Click
Advanced
and then click
Add
. Add the
intranet address of the switch (http://<
ip-address
>) to the local intranet
zone. The IP address can also be specified as the subnet IP address, so that
all addresses in the subnet are added to the local intranet zone.
•
If you are using Internet Explorer 6, you cannot directly use an IPv6 address
to access the switch. You can, however, use the Domain Name System
(DNS) server to create a domain name that contains the IPv6 address, and
then use that domain name in the address bar in place of the IPv6 address.
•
If you have multiple IPv6 interfaces on your management station, use the
IPv6 global address instead of IPv6 link local address to access the switch
from your browser.
•
Screen resolutions at 800x600 or lower in Internet Explorer browsers and
Firefox 3.6 are not supported by the web-based switch configuration utility.
