Logging in to the Web interface

Log in to the Web interface through HTTP or HTTPS.

Restrictions and guidelines

To ensure a successful login, verify that your operating system and Web browser meet the requirements, and follow the guidelines in this section.

Web browser requirements

As a best practice, use the following Web browsers:

·     Internet Explorer 10 or higher.

·     Mozilla Firefox 30.0.0.5269 or higher

·     Google Chrome 35.0.1916.114 or higher.

·     Safari 6 or higher.

To access the Web interface, you must use the following browser settings:

·     Accept the first-party cookies (cookies from the site you are accessing).

·     To ensure correct display of webpage contents after software upgrade or downgrade, clear data cached by the browser before you log in.

·     Enable active scripting or JavaScript, depending on the Web browser.

·     If you are using a Microsoft Internet Explorer browser, you must enable the following security settings:

Logging in to the Web interface for the first time

Restrictions and guidelines

·     For security purposes, change the login information and assign access permissions immediately after the first successful login.

·     A maximum of 64 users can concurrently log in to a device through the web interface.

·     To view the IP address of a device, log in to the device through the console interface, and then execute the display interface vlan-interface 1 command.

·     To view the factory defaults of a device, execute the display default-configuration command.

·     VLAN-interface 1 in factory defaults of the device supports using DHCP to obtain IP addresses or using static IP addresses. If the DHCP method is enabled, configure your PC to use an IP address on the same subnet as the device IP address for the PC to log in to the local Web interface. If the device fails to obtain an IP address through DHCP, VLAN-interface 1 uses the default address (192.168.0.100). If a static IP address is specified, VLAN-interface 1 uses the default address (192.168.0.100).

·     By default, HTTP and HTTPS are enabled.

Procedure

1.     Use an Ethernet cable to connect the configuration terminal to an Ethernet port on the device.

2.     Assign the login host an IP address in the same subnet as the device.

3.     Open the browser, and then enter login information:

a.     In the address bar, enter the IP address of the device.

-     HTTP access—Enter http://ip-address:80.

-     HTTPS access—Enter https://ip-address:443.

ip-address is the IP address of the device. The default port number is 80 for HTTP and 443 for HTTPS. You do not need to enter the port number if you have not changed the service port setting.

b.     On the login page, enter the default username (admin) and the default password (admin).

c.     Click Login, change the login password as prompted on the page that opens, and then click OK.

4.     Change the login information:

¡     To change the IP address of the device, select Network Configuration > IP > IP from the navigation tree to access the IP configuration page.

¡     To change the password of the login user (admin at the first login) or add new administrator accounts, select System > Management > Administrators from the navigation tree to access the administrator configuration page.
