3Com 9100 manual Using the WEB Interface, Enabling Disabling Web Access

USING THE WEB INTERFACE

The Web Interface is device-management software running in the switch that allows you to access the switch over a TCP/IP network, using a standard Web browser. Any properly configured standard Web browser that supports frames and JavaScript (such as Netscape Navigator 3.0 or higher, or Microsoft Internet Explorer 3.0 or higher) can be used to manage the system.

The Web Interface provides a subset of the command-line interface (CLI) commands available for configuring and monitoring the switch. If a particular command is not available using the Web Interface, you must use the CLI to access the desired functionality.

Enabling and

Disabling Web

Access

By default, Web access is enabled on the switch. To disable it, use the following command:

disable web

To re-enable Web access, use the following command:

enable web {access-profile <access_profile> none} {port

<port_number>}

You will need to reboot the system in order for these changes to take effect.

For more information on rebooting, refer to Chapter 10.

To use the Web Interface, at least one VLAN must be assigned an IP address.

For more information on assigning an IP address, refer to Chapter 3.
