Web login
Web login overview
The device provides a built-in web server that enables you to log in to the web interface of the device from
a PC. Web login is disabled by default.
To enable web login, log in to the device via the console port, and perform the following configuration:
• Enable HTTP or HTTPS service
• Configure the IP address of the VLAN interface
• Configure a username and password
The device supports the following web login methods:
• HTTP login: The Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) is used for transferring web page information
across the Internet. It is an application-layer protocol in the TCP/IP protocol suite. The
connection-oriented Transport Control Protocol (TCP) is adopted at the transport layer. The device
supports HTTP 1.0.
• HTTPS login: The Secure HTTP (HTTPS) refers to the HTTP protocol that supports the Security Socket
Layer (SSL) protocol. HTTPS uses SSL to encrypt the data exchanged between the HTTPS client and
the server to ensure data security and integrity. You can define a certificate attribute-based access
control policy to allow legal clients to access the device securely and to prohibit illegal clients.
The following table shows the configuration requirements of web login.
