Chapter 4 Using the Web Interface This chapter is a brief introduction to the web interface; for example, it explains how to access the Web-based management panels to configure and manage the system. Tip: Use the Web interface for configuration instead of the CLI interface. Web configuration is quicker and easier than entering the multiple required CLI commands. There are equivalent functions in the Web interface and the terminal interface-that is, both applications usually employ the same menus to accomplish a task. For example, when you log in, there is a Main Menu with the same functions available. You can manage your switch through a Web browser and Internet connection. This is referred to as Web-based management. To use Web-based management, the system must be set up for in-band connectivity. To access the switch, the Web browser must support: • HTML version 4.0, or later • HTTP version 1.1, or later • JavaScriptTM version 1.2, or later There are several differences between the Web and terminal interfaces. For example, on the Web interface the entire forwarding database can be displayed, while the terminal interface only displays 10 entries starting at specified addresses. To terminate the Web login session, close the web browser. Configuring for Web Access To enable Web access to the switch: 1. Configure the switch for in-band connectivity. The switch Getting Started Guide provides instructions. 2. Enable Web mode: 4-1 v1.0, Jan 2007
