Notes: 1. You are allowed three attempts to enter the correct password;
on the third failed attempt the current connection is
terminated.
2. If you log into the web interface as guest (Normal Exec level),
you can view the configuration settings or change the guest
password. If you log in as “admin” (Privileged Exec level), you
can change the settings on any page.
3. If the path between your management station and this switch
does not pass through any device that uses the Spanning Tree
Algorithm, then you can set the switch port attached to your
management station to fast forwarding (i.e., enable Admin
Edge Port) to improve the switch’s response time to
management commands issued through the web interface. See
“Configuring Interface Settings” on page 3-137.
