Introduction 

The DES-3226 offers an embedded Web-based (HTML) interface 
allowing users to manage the switch from anywhere on the 
network through a standard browser such as Netscape 
Navigator/Communicator or Microsoft Internet Explorer. The 
Web browser acts as a universal access tool and can communicate 
directly with the Switch using the HTTP protocol.  

The Web-based management module and the Console program 
(and Telnet) are different ways to access the same internal 
switching software and configure it. Thus, all settings 
encountered in web-based management are the same as those 
found in the console program. 

Note:

  This Web-based Management Module does not 

accept Chinese language input (or other languages 
requiring 2 bytes per character).   

Where there is a difference in the setup of the switch between 
its two operational modes (

Layer 2 Only

 and 

IP Routing

), the
