Managing Your Remote Console Switch Using the On-board Web Interface

109

If an account becomes locked, it will remain locked until the duration time

has elapsed, the Remote Console Switch is power-cycled, or an Administrator

unlocks the account. A User Administrator may unlock only user accounts,

whereas a Remote Console Switch Administrator may unlock any type of

account.
To unlock an account:

1 Click the Configure tab in the on-board web interface, then click the

Users category in the left column.

2 Select the check box next to the user name you wish to unlock.
3 Click the Unlock button. The lock icon next to the username will

disappear.

To specify the length of time a user account remains locked:

1 Click the Configure tab in the on-board web interface, then click the

Users category in the left column.

2 Click to enable the Enable Lock-outs check box.
3 Type the number of hours that a user will be locked out (1 to 99).

NOTE:

Only Remote Console Switch Administrators may specify lock-out

parameters.

To disable the Security Lockout feature:

1 Click the Configure tab in the on-board web interface, then click the

Users category in the left column.

2 Clear the Enable Lock-outs check box. The Duration field is disabled.

NOTE:

Disabling Security Lock-Out will have no affect on users that are already

locked out.

Enabling and Configuring SNMP

SNMP is a protocol used to communicate management information between

network management applications and Remote Console Switches. Other

SNMP managers can communicate with your Remote Console Switch by

accessing MIB-II and the public portion of the enterprise MIB. When you

select the SNMP category, the on-board web interface will retrieve the SNMP

parameters from the unit.
