Logging in to the Web interface
The switch provides a built-in Web server for you to configure the switch through a Web browser. Web
login is by default disabled.
To enable Web login, log in through the console port, and perform the following configuration tasks:
•
Enable HTTP service.
•
Assign an IP address to the VLAN interface, and make sure that the interface and the configuration
terminal can reach each other.
•
Configure a local user account for Web login
The switch supports using HTTP 1.0 and HTTPS to transfer webpage data across the Internet.
HTTPS uses SSL to encrypt data between the client and the server for data integrity and security, and is
more secure than HTTP. You can define a certificate attribute-based access control policy to allow only
legal clients to access the device.
HTTP login and HTTPS login are separate login methods. To use HTTPS login, you do not need to
configure HTTP login.
