Page 65 Chapter 3 Configuring Network Management The Web management interface is protected by a security mechanism that requires you to log in to the device using a user name and password.

The switch is shipped with the default user name and password both specified as default state of the Web Server is disabled. Page Requirements Getting Started.

Note: As long as you have a route to the switch and there are no filters or access policies in effect, you should be able to monitor the switch using the Web interface. Access to the Web management interface must also be enabled for the switch the default setting. Double-click the installer icon or in WinZip, extract the file, and click wm. Click Apply. Close the dialog box.

The Web Server is enabled. In Device Manager, use the Web tab to set Web access parameters, including passwords. The Security dialog box opens with the Access Policies tab displayed.

Click the Web tab. Specifies the default display rows for the HTML pages. Specifies the time of the most recent change to the switch configuration using the Web interface. This field always reads none.

Page 73 This command includes the following options: config web-server followed by: Indicates whether Web access is enabled or disabled on the info switch and displays the current Web user name and password setting.

Sets the number of rows displayed per page. Page Showing Web-Server Status Configuration example This configuration example uses the above commands to enable the web interface and specify the number of rows in the display.

The example also uses the command to display web interface parameters. The Web logon page opens Figure 19 Web logon page : on : ro Troubleshooting Web interface access to a switch If the switch and the PC running the Web browser are in the same network, you may find that even though other applications such as Device Manager or Telnet can access a particular switch, the Web management interface cannot.

Page 77 Chapter 4 Configuring Network Management Page Editing Ports Additional tabs and screen entries for module-specific functions appear when applicable. For example, on the Interface dialog box for a port, tabs for layer 3 routing functions would appear if Device Manager were accessing a Passport module.

To set a basic configuration: On the device view, select a port or multiple ports. Page Table 8 Interface Tab Fields If an upgrade does not allow autonegotiation to correctly identify the link speed and duplex settings, you can manually configure the settings for the link in question. Check the Nortel Networks Web site nortelnetworks.

Page 83 Gigabit fiber link. When the Passport Series switch is connected to a device that does not support it, autonegotiation should be disabled and SFFD enabled. For more information, see Network Design Guidelines. This tab allows you to define which of the connectors is the Primary connector. To open the Dual tab: On the device view, select a port or multiple ports. Click the IP Address tab. Note that only one IP address can be defined on a given port interface.

NetMask The subnet mask of the brouter interface on this port. The Port dialog box opens with the Interface tab displayed. Click the VLAN tab. PerformTagging Enable or disable the port on the current VLAN to perform tagging on the incoming and outgoing traffic. Value Specifies that a loop has been detected yes , or that no loop has been detected no. Configuring Network Management Note: When you edit multiple ports, the spanning tree options are not displayed.

To configure a spanning tree group: On the device view, select a port. Click the MAC Learning tab. When locked, no new MAC addresses will be learned. LogViolations Enables the system to create a system log entry when a disallowed MAC address attempts to send traffic through the selected port. Page Setting Rate Limits Setting rate limits You can set the rate limit of broadcast or multicast packets for a port. To set the rate limit: On the device view, select a port or multiple ports.

For Passport Switch switches, Enable Right click in the field and select to enable True or disable False rate limiting. However, you can also run external and internal loopback tests on the port. Note: You can run only one loopback test at a time. You must stop a loopback test before you start one on another port. Page Performing An External Loopback Test Performing an external loopback test An external loopback test uses a loopback connector connected to the port to loop data back to the same port.

Note: You must supply the loopback connector. To perform an external loopback test on a port: Plug in an external loopback connector. The Port dialog box opens with the Interface tab displayed page Set AdminStatus to testing. Click the Test tab. The Test tab opens Click Int. Click the DHCP tab. Page Table 18 Dhcp Tab Fields If the "secs" field in the packet header is greater than this value, the switch relays or forwards the packet; otherwise, the packet is dropped. The default is 0 seconds.

A default value of 1 means local delivery only. Click the IGMP tab. Page Table 20 Igmp Tab Fields Decreasing the value reduces the time to detect the loss of the last member of a group.

The range is from 0 to , and the default is 10 tenth seconds. Nortel Networks recommends configuring this parameter to values higher than 3. If a fast leave process is not required, Nortel recommends values above Customer agrees to comply with all applicable laws including all applicable export and import laws and regulations.
