This switch provides an embedded HTTP web agent. Using a web browser
you can configure the switch and view statistics to monitor network
activity. The web agent can be accessed by any computer on the network
using a standard web browser (Internet Explorer 6, Mozilla Firefox 4, or
Google Chrome 29, or more recent versions).

You can also use the Command Line Interface (CLI) to manage the
switch over a serial connection to the console port or via Telnet. For more
information on using the CLI, refer to "Using the Command Line Interface"
on page 869 .

Prior to accessing the switch from a web browser, be sure you have first
performed the following tasks:
1.
Configure the switch with a valid IP address, subnet mask, and default
gateway using an out-of-band serial connection, BOOTP or DHCP
protocol. (See "Setting an IP Address" on page 109 .)
2.
Set user names and passwords using an out-of-band serial connection.
Access to the web agent is controlled by the same user names and
passwords as the onboard configuration program. (See "Setting
Passwords" on page 108 .)
3.
After you enter a user name and password, you will have access to the
system configuration program.

You are allowed three attempts to enter the correct password; on
the third failed attempt the current connection is terminated.

If you log into the web interface as guest (Normal Exec level), you
can view the configuration settings or change the guest password. If you
log in as “admin” (Privileged Exec level), you can change the settings on
any page.

If the path between your management station and this switch does
not pass through any device that uses the Spanning Tree Algorithm, then
you can set the switch port attached to your management station to fast
forwarding (i.e., enable Admin Edge Port) to improve the switch’s response
time to management commands issued through the web interface. See
"Configuring Interface Settings for STA" on page 282 .
