6 Web-Based Management Interface
6.1 Overview
The BX600 Network IBP module provides a built-in browser software interface that lets you
configure and manage it remotely using a standard Web browser such as Microsoft Internet
Explorer or Netscape Navigator. This software interface also allows for system monitoring and
management of the IBP module. When you configure this IBP module for the first time from the
console, you have to assign an IP address and subnet mask to the IBP module. Thereafter, you
can access the IBP’s Web software interface directly using your Web browser by entering the
IBP’s IP address into the address bar. In this way, you can use your Web browser to manage
the IBP module from any remote PC station, just as if you were directly connected to the IBP’s
console port.
The four menu options available are: Group Administration, Panel Settings, Security and
Extended Configuration.
1. Group Administration Menu: This section provides information for configuring Port
Groups, Link State, IGMP snooping, Management VLAN and Port Backup, etc.
2. Panel Settings Menu: This section provides users to configure IBP interface (port),
SNMP and trap manager, Ping, DHCP client, SNTP, system time, defining system
parameters including telnet session and console baud rate, etc, downloading IBP module
software, and resetting the IBP module.
3. Security Menu: This section provides users to configure IBP securities including 802.1x,
Radius, TACACS, Secure Http, and Secure Shell.
4. Extended Configuration Menu: This section provides users to configure logging system
statistics, port access control, IP filtering, and authentication.
