Modifying the default Web login settings

Enter the CLI of the LB module and perform the following configuration:

# Add a telnet user account userA, and set its password to 123 456 and user privilege level to 3.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] local-user userA ←Add user userA.

[Sysname-luser-userA] service-type web ←Set the service type to web.

[Sysname-luser-userA] password simple 123456 ←Set the password to 123456.

[Sysname-luser-userA] authorization-attribute level 3 ←Set user level to 3.

[Sysname-luser-userA] quit

After the above-mentioned configuration, you can log in to the web-based configuration interface of the

LB module by using username userA and password 123456 .

Configuring the Web login function

The LB module provides a built-in Web server for you to configure the LB module through a Web browser.

The LB module supports HTTP 1.0 and HTTPS for transferring webpage data across the Internet.

HTTPS uses SSL to encrypt data between the client and the server for data integrity and security, and is

more secure than HTTP. You can define a certificate attribute-based access control policy to allow only

legal clients to access the LB module.

HTTP login and HTTPS login are separate login methods. To use HTTPS login, you do not need to

configure HTTP login.
