Using the EX2500 Web Device Manager

By default, EX2500 Web Device Manager access is enabled on the switch.

Configuring EX2500 Web Device Manager Access via HTTP

By default, EX2500 Web Device Manager access via HTTP is enabled. Use the
following command to disable or enable EX2500 Web Device Manager access on
the switch via HTTP:

ex2500(config)# [no] access http enable

The default HTTP Web server port to access the EX2500 Web Device Manager is
port 80. However, you can change the default Web server port with the following
command:

ex2500(config)# access http port <TCP port number>

For workstation access to your switch via the EX2500 Web Device Manager, open a
Web browser window and type in the URL using the IP interface address of the
switch, such as:

http://10.10.10.1

Configuring EX2500 Web Device Manager Access via HTTPS

The EX2500 Web Device Manager can be accessed via a secure HTTPS connection
over management and data ports. By default, EX2500 Web Device Manager access
via HTTPS is disabled.

To enable EX2500 Web Device Manager access on the switch via HTTPS, use the
following command:

ex2500(config)# access https enable

To change the HTTPS Web server port number from the default port 443, use the
following command:

ex2500(config)# access https port <TCP port number>

Accessing the EX2500 Web Device Manager via HTTPS requires a SSL certificate to
be used during the key exchange. A default certificate is created the first time
HTTPS is enabled, but you can import a new certificate that defines the information
you want to be used. Use the following command to import the SSL certificate:

ex2500(config)# access https import-certificate

The certificate is saved to Flash memory for use once the switch is rebooted.

When a client (e.g. Web browser) connects to the switch, the client is asked to
accept the certificate and verify that the fields match what is expected. Once
EX2500 Web Device Manager access is granted to the client, the Web Device
Manager can be used as described in the EX2500 Ethernet Switch Web Device
Manager Guide
