Getting started Introduction The 1Gb Intelligent L3 Switch software lets you use your Web browser to access switch information and statistics and perform switch configuration via the Internet. This guide provides an overview of how to access and use the switch browser-based interface (BBI). This chapter briefly describes the software features and requirements for the switch browser-based interface (BBI) and explains how to access the BBI start page.
Enabling or disabling BBI access By default, BBI access is enabled. If you need to disable or re-enable access, use the following command from the command line interface: >> Main# /cfg/sys/access/http By default, secure BBI access is disabled. If you need to enable access, use the following command from the command line interface: >> Main# /cfg/sys/access/https/https The default TCP port to use for BBI access is port 80.
If the switch IP interface address has a name on your local domain name server, you can enter the name instead. Using Internet Explorer, you can enter the following: 3. Log in to the switch. If your switch and browser are properly configured, you will be asked to enter a password. Enter the account name and password for the switch. For more password information, see the N8406-023 1Gb Intelligent L3 Switch Command Reference Guide.
4. Allow the BBI Dashboard page to load. When the proper account name and password combination is entered, the BBI Dashboard page is displayed in the browser viewing area. NOTE: There may be a slight delay while the Dashboard page is initializing. You should not stop the browser while loading is in progress. When loading is complete, a folder icon for the switch displays in the left-hand BBI window. Click this folder and a tree of folders displays.
Browser-based interface basics Introduction Once you are properly logged in, the switch BBI displays in the Web browser-viewing window. Toolbar Forms Window Navigation Window There are three main regions on the screen. The Toolbar is used for selecting the context for your actions in the other windows. The Navigation window is used for selecting particular items or features to act upon. The Forms window is used for viewing or altering switch information.
Commands The following general commands are available on the toolbar: Table 2 Toolbar commands Command Description Apply Pending configuration changes do not take effect until you select the Apply command. Once applied, all changes (except enabling/disabling Spanning Tree Protocol) take effect on the switch immediately. If you do not save the changes, however, they will be lost the next time the switch is rebooted.
Forms window When a feature icon is selected on the navigation window, a status, statistics, or configuration form is displayed in the forms window. The exact nature of the form depends on the current context selected on the toolbar, as well as the type of information available. Not all feature icons have forms for all contexts. Some forms display switch information such as settings, status, or statistics. Others allow you to make configuration changes to switch parameters.
