System information

Configuring the Switch
3-24
Web – Click SNMP, IP Filtering. To add a client, enter the new address, the subnet
mask for a node or an address range, and then click “Add IP Filtering Entry.”
CLI – This example allows SNMP access for a specific client.
User Authentication.
Use the Passwords or RADIUS/TACACS+ menu to restrict management access
based on specified user names and passwords. You can manually configure access
rights on the switch (Passwords menu), or you can use a remote access
authentication server based on the RADIUS/TACACS+ protocol. You can also use
IEEE 802.1x port authentication to control access to specific ports (dot1X menu).
Configuring the Logon Password
The guest only has read access for most configuration parameters. However, the
administrator has write access for all parameters governing the onboard agent. You
should therefore assign a new administrator password as soon as possible, and
store it in a safe place.
The default guest name is “guest” with the password “guest.” The default
administrator name is “admin” with the password “admin.” Note that user names can
only be assigned via the CLI.
