March 2005 Using WebView 45
Logging In to WebView
Note. Before attempting to establish a WebView session,
be sure that you have first unlocked the HTTP session
type via the aaa authentication command. Otherwise, a
login error will occur. See “Unlocking Session Types” on
page 22 for more information.
To access WebView and log in to a switch:
1 Open any Alcatel-tested Web browser (see page 44).
2 Enter the switch’s IP address in the browser’s
“Address” text field (“Location:” for Netscape users). The
login screen displays:
3 Enter the user name and password at the login prompt.
Remember, if you have already changed the user name and
password for your switch, be sure to use the new information.
If you have not changed your user name or password, the
factory defaults are admin and switch, respectively. Refer to
the Switch Management Guide for information on modifying
the default user name and password.
Navigating WebView
After you have successfully logged in, the Chassis Manage-
ment home page displays:
The Chassis Management home page provides a physical
representation of the switch, as well as basic system informa-
tion. This is the main launching point for WebView.
