Using Web-Based Management 5

Enabling Web Management

The HTTP Configuration menu is used to enable or disable the ability to

manage the switch with Web management. The HTTP Server parameter
must be set to ENABLED before Digital Networks WebView can be used

to manage the switch. If it is desired to disallow Web management of the

switch, this parameter should be set to DISABLED

1. Starting at the Main Menu of the console user interface, select

Management Setup Menu / Network Configuration / HTTP

Configuration.

2. Select HTTP Server, and use the Space bar to toggle between

ENABLED and DISABLED.

Starting and Stopping Digital Networks WebView

Do the following to use Digital Networks WebView:

1. Start a Java-enabled Web browser from any machine with network

access to the switch. (Preferred browsers include Internet Explorer

4.0 or above, or Netscape Navigator 4.0 or above.)

2. Enter the IP address for the switch you want to manage in the URL

field of the browser.

3. The screen shown below will appear, prompting you to enter the user

name and password for management access.

Use the name for the default administrator (admin), and the password

previously entered in the Setting Up Web Management section. This
will allow read/write access to the switch.

The full application will now launch. A four-frame page will display

with the product graphic located in the upper right hand frame.

4. To stop Digital Networks WebView, close the Web browser

application.
