Accessing WebView
WebView is accessed using any of the browsers listed on page 9-1. All of the necessary WebView files
are stored on the switch. To access WebView and login to a switch:
1 Open a web browser.
2 Enter the IP address of the switch you want to configure in the browser Address field and press Enter.
The login screen appears.
3 Enter the appropriate user ID and password at the login prompt (the initial user name is admin and the
initial password is switch) and click Login. After successful login, the Chassis Management Home Page
appears.
Note. You can access WebView through any interface on the switch. However, if you want to access the
switch through the EMP port, you must be on the same subnet as the switch.
To configure a feature in WebView, click on the feature icon in the toolbar on the left side of the screen.
The first page displayed is the Home Page. Each configuration feature in WebView has a Home Page and
a number of configuration pages. The Home Page provides an overview of the feature and current config-
uration. The configuration pages are used to configure the feature.
