Release Notes for the Cisco Catalyst Blade Switch 3020 for HP, Cisco IOS Release 12.2(35)SE and Later
12
Purpose
Enter global configuration mode.
Configure the HTTP server interface for the type of authentication that
you want to use.
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Verify your entries.
The device manager uses the HTTP protocol (the default is port 80) and the default method of
authentication (the enable password) to communicate with the switch through any of its Ethernet
ports and to allow switch management from a standard web browser.
If you change the HTTP port, you must include the new port number when you enter the IP address
in the browser Location or Address field (for example, http://10.1.126.45:184 where 184 is the new
HTTP port number). You should write down the port number through which you are connected. Use
care when changing the switch IP information.
If you are not using the default method of authentication (the enable password), you need to
configure the HTTP server interface with the method of authentication used on the switch.
Purpose
Enter global configuration mode.
Configure the HTTP server interface for the type of authentication that
you want to use.
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Verify your entries.
If you use Internet Explorer Version 5.5 and select a URL with a nonstandard port at the end of the

cannot launch the device manager.
