Switch
>en
Switch#config
Switch(Config)#ip http server
Step 2: Run HTTP protocol on the host.
Open the Web browser on the host and type the IP address of the switch. Or run
directly the HTTP protocol on the Windows. For example, the IP address of the switch is
‘10.1.128.251’.

Step 3: Logon to the switch
To logon to the HTTP configuration interface, valid login user name and password are
required; otherwise the switch will reject HTTP access. This is a method to protect the
switch from the unauthorized access. Consequently, in order to configure the switch via
HTTP, username and password for authorized HTTP users must be configured with the
following command in the global mode: web-user <user> password {0|7} <password>
Suppose an authorized user in the switch has a username as ‘test’, and password as ‘test’.
The configuration procedure is as below:
Switch
>en
Switch#config
Switch(Config)#web-user admin password 0 digital
Input the right username and password, and then the main Web configuration
interface.
