Once the public key is configured on the switch, the client can use SSH to login
from a system where the private key pair is set up:
ssh <switch IP address>
The switch provides a Browser‐Based Interface (BBI) for accessing the common
configuration, management and operation features of the NE2552E through your
Web browser.
You can access the BBI directly from an open Web browser window. Enter the URL
using the IP address of the switch interface (for example, http://<IPv4 or IPv6
address>).
When you first access the switch, you must enter the default username and
password: USERID; PASSW0RD (with a zero). You are required to change the
password after first login.
By default, BBI access via HTTP is disabled on the switch.
To enable or disable HTTP access to the switch BBI, use the following commands:
NE2552E(config)# access http enable
‐or‐
NE2552E(config)# no access http enable
The default HTTP web server port to access the BBI is port 80. However, you can
change the default Web server port with the following command:
NE2552E(config)# access http port <TCP port>
To access the BBI from a workstation, open a Web browser window and type in the
URL using the IP address of the switch interface (for example, http://<IPv4 or
IPv6 address>).
