Chapter 1: Starting a Web Browser Management Session

Section I: Basic Operations
The main menu is on the left side of the Home page and consists of the
following selections:
Enhanced Stacking
Configuration
Monitoring
Logout
Note
The Enhanced Stacking selection is displayed only on master
switches.
A web browser management session remains active even when you link
to other sites. You can return to the management web pages anytime as
long as you do not quit the browser.
You should always log out from a web browser management session
when you are finished managing the switch. (For instructions, see
“Quitting a Web Browser Management Session” on page 29.) Logging out
prevents unauthorized individuals from making changes to a switch’s
configuration if you leave your management station unattended.
If you close your web browser without logging out, the switch considers
the management session as still in progress and will not permit the start of
another management session until the expiration of the console timer. The
timer is used to automatically end inactive local and remote management
sessions. The default setting for the timer is ten minutes. The console
timer can be set from the menus or the command line interface, but not
from the web browser interface.
