NOTE

If you are unable to connect with the device through a Web browser due to a proxy problem, it may
be necessary to set your Web browser to direct Internet access instead of using a proxy. For
information on how to change a proxy setting, refer to the on-line help provided with your Web
browser.

To log in, click on the Login link.

The login username and password you enter depends on whether your device is configured with
AAA authentication for SNMP. If AAA authentication for SNMP is not configured, you can use the
user name “get” and the default read-only password “public” for read-only access. However, for
read-write access, you must enter “set” for the user name, and enter a read-write community string
you have configured on the device for the password. There is no default read-write community
string. You must add one using the CLI.

Web Management Interface

When you log into a device, the System configuration panel is displayed. This panel allows you to
enable or disable major system features. You can return to this panel from any other panel by
selecting the Home link.

The Site Map link gives you a view of all available options on a single screen.
