CONFIGURING THE SWITCH

Notes: 1. You are allowed three attempts to enter the correct password; on the third failed attempt the current connection is terminated.

2.If you log into the Web interface as guest (Normal Exec level), you can view the configuration settings or change the guest password. If you log in as “admin” (Privileged Exec level), you can change the settings on any page.

3.If the path between your management station and this switch does not pass through any device that uses the Spanning Tree Algorithm, then you can set the switch port attached to your management station to fast forwarding (i.e., enable Admin Edge Port) to improve the switch’s response time to management commands issued through the Web interface. See “Configuring Interface Settings” on page 3-99.
