Starting a Web Browser Management Session

This section explains how to start a web browser management session.

There must be at least one Allied Telesyn enhanced stacking switch on
your network that has an IP address. The switch with the IP address is
referred to as the master switch. Once you have started a web browser
management session on the master switch, you will have management
access to all other enhanced stacking switches that reside in the same
stack.

Note

For background information on enhanced stacking, refer to
Enhanced Stacking Overview on page 58.

To start a web browser management session, perform the following
procedure:

1. Start your web browser.

Note

If your PC with the web browser is connected directly to the switch
to be managed or is on the same side of a firewall as the switch, you
must 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 not to use proxies.

2. Enter the IP address of the master switch of the enhanced stack in the

URL field of the browser, as shown in Figure 70.

3. When prompted, enter a user name and password. For manager

access, enter “manager” as the user name. The default password is
“friend”. For operator access, enter “operator” as the user name. The
default password is “operator”. Logins and passwords are case-
sensitive. (For information on the two access levels, refer to
Management Access Levels on page 26.)
