It enables you to log into an S3100Ethernet switch through a Web browser and then manage and maintain the switchintuitively by interacting with the built-in Web server.To log into an S3100 Ethernet switch through the built-in Web-based networkmanagement system, you need to perform the related configuration on both the switchand the PC operating as the network management terminal.Table 5-1 Requirements for logging into a switch through the Web-based networkmanagement systemItem RequirementThe VLAN interface of the switch is assigned an IPaddress, and the route between the switch and the Webnetwork management terminal is reachable. (Refer to theIP Address Configuration – IP Performance Configurationand Routing Protocol parts for related information.)SwitchThe user name and password for logging into theWeb-based network management system are configured.IE is available.PC operating as thenetwork managementterminal The IP address of the VLAN interface of the switch, theuser name, and the password are available.5.2 Establishing an HTTP Connection1) Assign an IP address to VLAN-interface 1 of the switch (VLAN 1 is the defaultVLAN of the switch). See section 3.5.1 "Telnetting to a Switch from a Terminal" forrelated information.2) Configure the user name and the password on the switch for the Web networkmanagement user to log in.# Create a Web user account, setting both the user name and the password to “admin”and the user level to 3. system-view[Sysname] local-user admin[Sysname-luser-admin] service-type telnet level 3
