3.1.2.2 Management via HTTP

To manage the switch via HTTP, the following conditions should be met:

1)

Switch has an IPv4/IPv6 address configured;

2)

The host IPv4/IPv6 address (HTTP client) and the switch’s VLAN interface IPv4/IPv6 address are in

the same network segment;

3)

If 2) is not met, HTTP client should connect to an IPv4/IPv6 address of the switch via other devices,

such as a router.

Similar to management the switch via Telnet, as soon as the host succeeds to ping/ping6 an IPv4/IPv6

address of the switch and to type the right login password, it can access the switch via HTTP. The

configuration list is as below:

Step 1: Configure the IP addresses for the switch and start the HTTP server function on the switch.

For configuring the IP address on the switch through out-of-band management, see the telnet management

chapter.

To enable the WEB configuration, users should type the CLI command IP http server in the global mode as

below:

Switch>enable

Switch#config

Switch(config)#ip http server
