Logging in Through Web-based Network
Management System

Introduction

An S5120-SI series switch has a Web server built in. You can log in to an S5120-SI series switch
through a Web browser and manage and maintain the switch intuitively by interacting with the built-in
Web server.
To log in to an S5120-SI series switch through the built-in Web-based network management system,
you need to perform the related configuration on both the switch and the PC operating as the network
management terminal.
