ETWORK
A Switch 4800G has a Web server built in. You can log in to a Switch 4800G
through a Web browser and manage and maintain the switch intuitively by
interacting with the built-in Web server.
To log in to a Switch 4800G through the built-in Web-based network
management system, you need to perform the related configuration on both the
switch and the PC operating as the network management terminal.
