CONFIGURING THE SWITCH

3.After you enter a user name and password, you will have access to the system configuration program.

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

2.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 to improve the switch’s response time to management commands issued through the Web interface. See “Managing STA Interface Settings” on page 2-37.
