6.4 Management with Http Connection
Users can manage the switch with Http Web Browser connection. Before http
connection, IP address configuration of the switch should be done first.
Please follow the instruction in Section 6.2 to complete the console connection
and use “show ip interface” command to check IP address of the switch first.
If users want to change the IP address of the switch, use “ip address
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy” (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the IP address and
yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy is the netmask) command in interface-vlan configuring mode
(under “(config-if)#” prompt) to modify the IP address of the switch. The default
IP configuration is 192.168.1.1 and mask 255.255.255.0.
After IP address configuration done and the switch is connected to network, users
can start Http connection by entering IP address of the switch to the web address
line in Web Browser. A login screen will be prompted for user name and
password. The default user name and password is "admin" / ”admin”. Then
the management homepage will appear.
Left part of the homepage is a function list. Users can select one of them for
status monitoring or switch configuration.
Upper part of the homepage is the link status of the switch. Three different
colors are used to show different status of ports – Link Up, Link Down and Port
Disable.
Middle part of homepage is the main operation area for each function.
The details about management with http connection will be shown in the following
sub-sections.
