NetXpress LX Login

When you launch the Web server interface application, the system immediately displays the logon
screen (Figure 2-2). You must type the proper user name and password to gain access to the
NetXpress LX Web interface. Before it is configured, the NetXpress LX system has a default
administrator user name of "admin" and default password of "admin" for the Web interface. Once you
initially log on, you can change the Web interface administrator password, as well as administrator
and guest accounts for Web FTP access (Section 4.3.7.1 – Accounts).

Management Protocols on an Interface

The NetXpress LX system comes with two Ethernet interfaces:
● WAN
● LAN
The LAN interface allows you to run all management traffic on a separate network if desired.
By default, each interface accepts HTTP and SNMP protocols and allows FTP and Telnet sessions to be
established. You can use the interface screens in Section 4.3.4 – Configure the Network to enable or
disable different protocols for each interface. Controlling protocols by interface enables you to
● Tighten security
● Block unwanted traffic
● Ensure network privacy

IP Access List Use

You can add security to your NetXpress LX installation by limiting access based on specific IP
addresses (Section 4.3.7.2 – IP Access List). You can also use the same networking configuration
screen to specify which interface can be used to gain access to the system.
2.3.4
