Disabling Web management access
If you want to prevent access to the device through the Web Management Interface, you can
disable the Web Management Interface.
NOTE
As soon as you make this change, the device stops responding to Web management sessions. If you
make this change using your Web browser, your browser can contact the device, but the device will
not reply once the change takes place.
To disable the Web Management Interface, enter the following command.
ServerIronADX(config)# no web-management
To re-enable the Web Management Interface, enter the following command.
ServerIronADX(config)# web-management
Syntax: [no] web-management
Disabling Web management access by HP TOP-TOOLS
By default, TCP ports 80 and 280 are enabled on the ServerIron. TCP port 80 (HTTP) allows access
to the device’s Web Management Interface. TCP port 280 allows access to the device by HP
TOP-TOOLS.
The no web-management command disables both TCP ports. However, if you want to disable only
port 280 and leave port 80 enabled, use the hp-top-tools option with the command.
Example
ServerIronADX(config)# no web-management hp-top-tools
Syntax: [no] web-management [allow-no-password | enable [vlan <vlan-id>] | front-panel |
hp-top-tools | list-menu]
The hp-top-tools parameter disables TCP port 280.
Setting passwords
Passwords can be used to secure the following access methods:
• Telnet access can be secured by setting a Telnet password. Refer to “Setting a Telnet
password” on page 100.
• Access to the Privileged EXEC and CONFIG levels of the CLI can be secured by setting
passwords for management privilege levels. Refer to “Setting passwords for management
privilege levels” on page 100.
This section also provides procedures for enhancing management privilege levels, recovering from
a lost password, and disabling password encryption.
NOTE
You also can configure up to 16 user accounts consisting of a user name and password, and assign
each user account a management privilege level. Refer to “Setting up local user accounts” on
page 104.
