Notes: 1. You are allowed three attempts to enter the correct

password; on the third failed attempt the current
connection is terminated.

2. If you log into the Web interface as guest (Normal Exec

level), you can view page information but only change
the guest password. If you log in as “admin” (Privileged
Exec level), you can apply changes on all pages.

3. If the path between your management station and this

switch does not pass through any device that uses the
Spanning Tree Algorithm, you can set the switch port
attached to your management station to fast forwarding
to improve the switch’s response time to management
commands issued through the Web interface. See
“Managing STA Interface Settings” on page 2-47.

Navigating the Web Browser Interface

To access the Web-browser interface you must first enter a user
name and password. The administrator has Read/Write access to
all configuration parameters and statistics. The default user name
and password for the administrator is “admin.”
