Starting a Web Browser Management Session
The web server on a stand-alone AT-9400 Switch or the master switch of
an enhanced stack supports both nonsecure HTTP and secure HTTPS
operation. (For instructions on how to configure the web server for
HTTPS, refer to the AT-S63 Management Software Features Guide.) The
web server on the master switch of a stack of Basic Layer 3 AT-9400
Switches supports just HTTP.
To start a web browser management session on a switch or stack, perform
the following procedure:
1. Start your web browser.
Note
If your PC with the web browser is connected directly to the switch
or is on the same side of a firewall as the switch, you might have to
configure your browser’s network options not to use proxies. Consult
your web browser’s documentation on how to configure the switch’s
web browser to not use proxies.
2. In the URL field of the browser, enter the IP address of the local
interface on the switch or stack to be managed. This can be a stand-
alone switch, the master switch of an enhanced stack, or the master
switch of an AT-9400 Basic Layer 3 stack. If the switch is configured
for secure HTTPS management, included the prefix HTTPS://.
