6.3.1 Principle of Web Based Management
Principle of Web Based Management
IE switches have an integrated HTTP server for Web Based Management. If an IE switch is
addressed over a Web browser, it returns HTML pages to the client computer depending on
the user input.
The user enters the configuration data in the HTML pages sent by the IE switch. The IE
switch evaluates this information and generates reply pages dynamically. The great
advantage of this method is that apart from a Web browser, no special software is required
on the client.
Requirements for Web Based Management
● An IE switch must have an IP address before you can use Web Based Management.
● To use Web Based Management, there must be an Ethernet connection between the IE
switch and the client computer.
● Use of a Microsoft Internet Explorer, version 5.5 or higher is recommended.
● All the pages of Web Based Management require JavaScript. You should therefore make
sure that Java Script is enabled in your browser settings.
Note
The browser must not be set so that it reloads the page from the server each time the
page is accessed. The updating of the dynamic content of the page is ensured by other
mechanisms. In the Internet Explorer, you can make the appropriate setting in the
Options > Internet Options > General menu in the section Temporary Internet Files with
the Settings button.

Check for newer versions of stored pages, the Automatically check box
must be selected.
● Web Based Management is HTTP- or HTTPS-based, so you must also enable access to
port 80 or 443 if you have a firewall installed.
