Logging into the Web UI

Web-based User Interface (Web UI)
Introduction
Most software functions of the Switch can be managed, configured, and monitored via the embedded HTML Web-
based User Interface (Web UI). Management can be done on the Switch from remote stations anywhere on the
network through a standard web browser. The web browser acts as a universal access tool and can communicate
directly with the Switch using the HTTP or HTTPS (SSL) protocol.
The following web browsers are supported:

Internet Explorer (version 7 and later)

Firefox

Google Chrome

Safari
Logging into the Web UI
To begin managing the Switch, simply run the web browser installed on the computer and enter the IP address of the
Switch in the web browser's address bar and press Enter. The web browser should translate this to an HTTP request,
for example, http://10.90.90.90.
After pressing Enter, the following authentication window should appear, as shown below.
When connecting to the Web UI of the Switch for the first time, leave the User name and Password fields blank and
click OK since there are no login user accounts created by default on this switch. This will open the Web UI.
