Fig 1-8 Telnet Configuration Interface
1.1.4 Management via HTTP
To manage the switch via HTTP, the following conditions should be met:
1) Switch has an IP address configured
2) The host IP address (HTTP client) and the switch’s VLAN interface IP address
are in the same network segment;
3) If 2) is not met, HTTP client should connect to an IP address of the switch via
other devices, such as a router.
Similar to management via Telnet, as soon as the host succeeds to ping an IP
address of the switch and to type the right login password, it can access the switch via
HTTP. The configuration list is as below:
Step 1:
Configure the IP addresses for the switch and start the HTTP function on the
switch.
For configuring the IP address on the switch through out-of-band management, see
the relevant chapter.
To enable the WEB configuration, users should type the CLI command
ip http
server
in the global mode as below:
