Manageable Mosaic switch Installation and User Guide
3.1.2 Management Passwords Scheme
Legrand devices can be managed in several ways: with the Embedded web interface application,
through Web access or via Telnet. Each way has its own password scheme as follows:
• When using the Embedded web interface application all user access level
passwords are stored in the application and can be changed through it. Embedded
web interface allows access to all Legrand manageable devices.
• The passwords for Web access to manage Legrand devices are stored in each
individual device. They can also be stored in up to four Radius servers, allowing
central password management. Passwords stored in the device can be changed
via the Telnet command set http password (see Section 8) while passwords
stored on the Radius servers are changed in the Radius server itself. Upon logging
in to the device, the password is verified either according to what is stored in the
individual device or, if configured to the Radius server, is authenticated by one of
the Radius servers (see Section 3.2.1).
NOTE: In the case where multiple Radius servers are present, authentication begins at the
first Radius server in the Radius Server Index List. If that Radius server is not found,
authentication automatically proceeds to the next Radius Server in the list.
If a Radius Server is found, but does not authenticate the user, the authentication process
is ended and no further search takes place.
• The Telnet connection and the CLI access use the same password (mypass is the
factory default). This password can only be changed via the CLI connection, see
section 8.3. For security reasons, Telnet sessions are automatically terminated
after about 60 seconds of idle time and require reconnecting and login (see Section
8).
3.2
Launching the Embedded web interface Application via
a Web Browser
1. Verify that your computer is connected to the same network as that of the manageable
Mosaic switch unit to be managed.
NOTE: The Embedded web interface Web application is a Java-based application. In order
to use the Embedded web interface Web application, JRE (Java Runtime Environment) or
JVM (Java Virtual Machine) must already be installed on your computer. Java is freeware
and can be downloaded from: www.javasoft.com.
2. This software requires prior installation of the Java JRE 1.6 minimum.
Launch your Web browser. In the browser address bar type the IP address of the
manageable Mosaic switch unit to be accessed and press enter. It may take a few
seconds for the Java applet to load the Embedded web interface application GUI.
Once completed, the Login window appears as shown in Figure 3-1.
