Web-Based Network Management

Introduction

The DGS-3024 offers an embedded Web-based (HTML) interface allowing users to manage the Switch from anywhere on
the network through a standard browser, such as Opera, Netscape Navigator/Communicator, or Microsoft Internet Explorer.
The Web browser acts as a universal access tool and can communicate directly with the Switch using the HTTP protocol.
Your browser window may vary with the screen shots (pictures) in this manual.
The Web-based management module and the Console program (and Telnet) are different ways to access the same internal
Switching software and configure it. Thus, all settings encountered in Web-based management are the same as those found in
the console program.

Login to Web Manager

To begin managing your Switch, simply run the browser you have installed on your computer and point it to the IP address
you have defined for the device. The URL in the address bar should read something like: http://123.123.123.123, where the
numbers 123 represent the IP address of the Switch. Please note that the proxy for session connection should be turned off.
In the page that opens, click on the Login to make a setup button:
This opens the management module's user authentication window, as seen below.
