Switch Management; Embedded Web Server (Ews) - HP 316095-B21 - StorageWorks Edge Switch 2/24 Installation Manual

Switch Management

The switch is managed and controlled through a:

Embedded Web Server (EWS)

Administrators or operators with a browser-capable PC and a LAN to which the
switch is connected can monitor and manage the switch through the Embedded
Web Server (EWS) interface. The EWS interface manages only a single switch,
and provides a graphical user interface (GUI) that supports product configuration,
statistics monitoring, and basic operation. The EWS interface is opened from a
standard web browser running Netscape Navigator 4.6 or later or Microsoft
Internet Explorer 4.0 or later.
At the browser, enter the Internet Protocol (IP) address of the switch as the
Internet uniform resource locator (URL). When prompted at a login screen, enter
a user name and password.
Refer to the HP StorageWorks Embedded Web Server User Guide for more
information.
