Web Management
Over the Network
To manage a switch using the Web interface over an IP network:
1 Check that you have the correct IP information configured on your
management workstation. You can check this by trying to browse the
World Wide Web. If you can browse, the IP is installed.
2 Check that you can communicate with the switch by entering a ping
command at the DOS prompt in the following format:
c:\ ping xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
(where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the IP address of the switch)
If you get an error message, check that your IP information has been
entered correctly and that the switch is powered up.
3 Open your Web browser and enter the switch’s IP address in the URL
locator, for example, in the following format:
http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
4 At the Username prompt, enter admin as your user name and press
Return. At the password prompt press Return again. (or enter the
password if you have modified the default passwords).
5 Click on the Device View button to display the web management options.
Setting Up SNMP
Management
Any network management application running the Simple Network
Management Protocol (SNMP) can manage a switch if the management
workstation is connected to the switch using a port on the management
VLAN. By default, the management VLAN is 1, and all ports on the
switch are in VLAN 1
You can use the 3Com Network Director, Device manager, EMC and the
OV integration kit (available from 3Com’s Web site) to provide SNMP
management for your switch. 3Com Network Director, Device manager,
EMS, and OV integration kit automatically loads the correct MIBs and
necessary files onto your workstation.
Prerequisites The default read community string is public. To change this setting, in
System View, enter display snmp community.
