5.1 Introduction
An S5600 Ethernet switch has a Web server built in. It enables you to log in to an S5600
Ethernet switch through a Web browser and then manage and maintain the switch
intuitively by interacting with the built-in Web server.
To log in to an S5600 Ethernet switch through the built-in Web-based network
management system, you need to perform the related configuration on both the switch
and the PC operating as the network management terminal.
