G8264 Application Guide for ENOS 8.4
The switch provides a Browser‐Based Interface (BBI) for accessing the common
configuration, management, and operation features of the G8264 through your
Web browser.
By default, BBI access via HTTP is enabled on the switch.
You can also 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>).
By default, BBI access via HTTP is enabled on the switch.
To disable or re‐enable HTTP access to the switch BBI, use the following
commands:
RS G8264(config)# access http enable
‐or‐
RS G8264(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:
RS G8264(config)# access http port <TCP port number>
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>).
The BBI can also be accessed via a secure HTTPS connection over management and
data ports.
By default, BBI access is enabled via both HTTP and HTTPS on the switch. If
HTTPS access has been disabled, use the following command to enable BBI Access
via HTTPS:
RS G8264(config)# access https enable
To change the HTTPS Web server port number from the default port 443, use the
following command:
RS G8264(config)# access https port <x>
(Enable HTTP access)
(Disable HTTP access)
