Using a port other than 80 requires the user to designate the port when accessing the BBI. For example, if the device IP address is 192.168.0.3 and the designated port is 8080, the device is accessed from the browser as: http://192.168.0.3:8080.
6From the HTTP access menu, enable BBI access using the ena command.
>>HTTP# ena
7Finalize the changes using the apply command.
>>HTTP# apply
Steps 8 through 11 provide instruction on enabling HTTPS access to the BBI. Enabling HTTPS is not necessary for access to the BBI but provides a more secure environment than HTTP access.
