Launching the Utility
To open the web-based switch configuration utility:
STEP 1 Open a web browser.
STEP 2 Enter the IP address of the switch that you are configuring in the address bar on
the browser, and then press Enter. The Login page opens.
NOTE When logging in by using HTTP or HTML, if you are provided an option to choose
from more than one network port, select the lowest number port.
Logging In
To log in to the web-based switch configuration utility:
STEP 1 Enter the username and password. The factory default user name is cisco and the
default password is cisco.
Note: When the switch boots with the factory default configuration, the web-
based switch configuration utility appears in the default language. After you log in,
you can download additional languages by using the Upgrade/Backup Firmware/
Language page.
STEP 2 If this is the first time that you logged on with the default user name (cisco) and the
default password (cisco) or your password has expired, the Change Admin
Password page opens. Enter the new password, confirm it, click Apply, and then
click Close. The new password is saved. (The characters ', ", %, and ? are not
supported.)
STEP 3 Click Login.
When the login attempt is successful, the Getting Started page opens.
If you entered an incorrect user name or password, an error message is displayed
and the Login page remains displayed on the screen.
Select Don’t show this page on startup to prevent the Getting Started page from
being displayed each time that you logon to the system. If you select this option,
the System Summary page is opened instead of the Getting Started page.
