Configuring WX
Management
Services
You can configure the following information and management services
for the WX switch:
System information—You can specify system contact information, as
well as the CLI prompt and the banner message that appears at each
session.
HTTPS—By default, HTTPS is enabled. TCP port 443 is used for secure
access by Web Manager, the 3Com Web-based application for
managing a WX switch.
3WXM communications also use HTTPS, but 3WXM is not affected by the
HTTPS configuration on the WX. For 3WXM, HTTPS is always enabled and
listens to port 8889.
Telnet—By default, Telnet is disabled. You can enable Telnet for
unencrypted access to the CLI. By default, a Telnet user is only
provided with read-access to the switch. You must set the service-type
attribute to 6 for users who are to be given read and write access to
the switch through Telnet.
SSH—By default, SSH is enabled. You can use SSH for encrypted
access to the CLI.
SNMP—By default, SNMP is disabled. You can configure SNMP
community strings and User Security Model (USM) users, notification
profiles, and notification targets.
