Configuration Guide Overview 1 Overview eWeb is a Web-based network management system that manages or configures devices. You can access eWeb via browsers such as Google Chrome. Web-based management involves the Web server and Web client. The Web server is integrated in a device, and is used to receive and process requests from the client, and return processing results to the client.
Configuration Guide Configuration Guide 2 Configuration Guide 2.1 Configuration Preparation 2.1.1 Scenario As shown in the figure below, you can access the eWeb management system of an access or aggregation switch via a PC browser to manage and configure the device. Figure 2-1-1 Network Topology Note: The device enclosed in the red frame in the preceding figure is the accessed switch.
