Web-Based Configuration and Monitoring
As well as the menu-driven system configuration program, the agent
module provides an embedded HTTP Web agent. This agent can be
accessed by any computer on the network using a standard Web browser
(Internet Explorer 4.0 or above, or Netscape Navigator 4.0 or above).
Using the Web browser management interface you can configure a switch
and view statistics to monitor network activity. The Web interface also
provides access to a range of SNMP management functions with access to
the switch’s MIB and RMON database.
Prior to accessing the switch from a Web browser, be sure you have first
performed the following tasks:
1. Configure it with a valid IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway
using an out-of-band serial connection or BOOTP protocol.
2. Set the Administrator user name and password using an out-of-band
serial connection. Access to the Web agent is controlled by the same
Administrator user name and password as the on-board configuration
program.
