Creating User Names and Passwords in the Web

Browser Interface

You may want to create both a user name and password to create access security for your switch. There are two levels of access to the interface that can be controlled by setting user names and passwords:

■operator. An Operator-level user name and password allows read-only access to most of the web browser interface, but prevents access to the Security window.

■manager. A Manager-level user name and password allows full read/ write access to the web browser interface.
