13Using ExtremeWare Vista

ExtremeWare Vista is device-management software running in the Summit 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 (such as Netscape Navigator 3.0 or higher, or Microsoft Internet Explorer 3.0 or higher) can be used to manage the switch.

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

ENABLING AND DISABLING WEB ACCESS

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

disable web

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

enable web

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

For more information on rebooting the switch, refer to Chapter 14.
