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 6.0 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:

¡     Run ActiveX controls and plug-ins.

¡     Script ActiveX controls marked safe for scripting.

Default login settings

Use settings in Table 1 for the first login.

Table 1 Default login settings

Item	Setting
Device IP (VLAN-interface 1)	192.168.0.100
IP address mask	255.255.0.0
Username	admin
Password	admin
User role	network-admin

 

Concurrent login users

The Web interface allows a maximum of 64 concurrent accesses. If this limit is reached, login attempts will fail.

Logging in to the Web interface for the first time

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

 

NOTE: ·     VLAN-interface 1 in the factory default configuration of the device obtains an IP address through DHCP. If the interface obtains an IP address through DHCP successfully, you must assign the login host an IP address in the same subnet as the interface. If the interface fails to obtain an IP address through DHCP, the interface uses default address 192.168.0.100. ·     To obtain the current IP address of the device, log in to the device through the console, and then execute the display interface vlan-interface 1 command. ·     To view the factory default settings of the device, execute the display default-configuration command.

 

By default, HTTP and HTTPS are enabled.

To log in to the Web interface:

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, perform the following tasks:

-     Click the system view tab at the bottom of the page.

-     From the navigation tree, select Network Configuration > Network Services > IP Services. You are placed on the IP tab.

¡     To change the password of the login user (admin at the first login) or add new administrator accounts, perform the following tasks:

-     Click the system view tab at the bottom of the page.

-     From the navigation tree, select System > Administrators to access the administrator configuration page.

Logging out of the Web interface

IMPORTANT: ·     For security purposes, log out of the Web interface immediately after you finish your tasks. ·     You cannot log out by directly closing the browser. ·     Some devices do not automatically save the configuration when you log out of the Web interface. To prevent the loss of configuration when the device reboots, you must save the configuration. Support for the auto configuration saving feature depends on the device model. For more information, see "Using the Web interface".

 

To log out of the Web interface:

1.     Use one of the following methods to save the current configuration:

Method 1:

Click Save in the upper right corner of the Web interface.

Method 2:

a.     Click the system view tab at the bottom of the page, select System > Management from the navigation tree.

b.     Click the Configuration tab to access the configuration page.

c.     Click Save Running Configuration.

2.     Click the admin icon, and then click Logout.
