Chapter 1
Starting the HTTP Server
The Bay Networks® HTTP Server is an embedded Web-based device
management tool accessible from a ny standard W eb browser. The HTTP Server is
included with the Bay Networks router operating system software . Using HTTP
Server softw are, you can monitor network devi ces, viewing summary, fault, and
statistical inf ormation on a device-by-device basis.
Before you can use the HTTP Server to monitor a router, you must ensure that
your browser is at the corr ect version and that its setti ngs are appropriate to
support the HTTP Server softwa re. You must also configure and enable the HTTP
Server softw are on the router using the Quick-Start installation script install.bat,
Site Manager, or the Bay Command Console (BCC
™
).
This chapter describes how you do each of these tasks.

Browser Requirements
The HTTP Server softwar e requires a Web browser that suppor ts frames, such as
Netscape 3.0 or higher and Microsoft® Internet Expl orer® 3.0 or higher. You can
use the default se ttings f or thes e browse rs. If you hav e change d these set tings, you
must ensure that Java is enabled.
Internet Explorer all ows you to store your browser password. For
Note:
security reasons , it is wise not to store your password.
Starting the HTTP Server Using
A new router comes with a flash memory card containing the software image for
the router , two configuration files (conf ig and ti.cfg), and the Quick-Start scrip t
install.bat.
The Quick-Start installation script creates an initial IP network int erface on the
router, so that your router can communicate with the configuration workstation
from which you will manage the rout er. The install.bat script prompt s you to ent er
the network information that dynamically configur es the initial IP interface.
As the following exa mple shows, step 7 of the script asks whether you want to
enable HTTP. Answer yes to this question. (The default is no.)

Starting the HTTP Server
When you enable the HTTP Server during the Quick-St art procedure , you can use
the HTTP Server after completing the install.bat proc edure . I f necessary, you can
modify the default HTTP Serv e r settings (see Chapter 9, “Customizing HTTP
Server Parameters).
After you run the install. bat script, you can install Site Manager software, as
described in Quick-Starting Routers.
Starting the HTTP Server Using the BCC or Site Manager
If you did not use the Quick-Start procedure to start the HTTP Server, you can
start it using the BCC or Site Manager. Before you start the HTTP Server, verify
that you configured IP on an interface.
You can start the HTTP Server using defa ult values for all parameters. If you
decide to change any of the default value s, see Chapter 9, “Customizing HTTP
Server Parameters.”
Using the BCC
Adding the HTTP Server to a router automatically loads TCP on all slots. To add
the HTTP Server to a router, navigate to the box prompt and enter:

Chapter 3
HTTP Server Security
The HTTP Server allo ws access to device information from anywhere in the
network. To protect your network information, you may want to implement
security controls. The HTTP Server offers two levels of access control:
user name/password se curity and network address filtering.
TopicPage
User Name/Password Secur ity
Network Address Filteri ng3-2
User Name/Password Security
The HTTP Server con trols access to networ k device information by grouping that
information into colle ctions that share the same security attributes, calle d realms.
The HTTP Server define s two security realms on the router: User and Manager.
These are the sam e as the logins for the Technician Interface. Similarly, a
user name/password authorization mechanism controls access to each realm.
•User access privile ges let you view informat ion.
•Manager access privileges grant complete access to the router, letting you, for
example, enable and disable an interface.
Before allo wing any Manager-level operations, however, the HTTP Serve r
requires that the system administrator set a nonnull Manager password. If the
system administrat or does not set a User password, the HTTP Server accepts an
empty (null) string as the password. Generally, the system administrator sets
passwords using Technician Interface commands, just as for console access
through the Technician Interface.
3-1
303552-A Rev 003-1
Managing Your Network Using the HTTP Server
If you have User access privileges and attempt to access information requiring
Manager privileges (or, if you attempt to use the Manager login with a null
password), the HTTP Server prompts you for the Manager password. If you do
not provide the appropriate password, an error messag e ap pears, and you cannot
perform tha t op eration.
For specific information about how to set user names and passwords, see Using Technician Interface Software. For inf ormation about securing a router as part of
the Quick-Start procedur e, see Quick-Starting Routers.
Networ k Address Filter ing
For additiona l security, you can implement IP access control filters when you
configure IP on the r outer. These filters further restrict access to the router,
limiting access to specific IP addresses or IP address ranges.
You must also ensure that IP is appropriately conf igured to support HTTP. To do
this, you must ensure that:
•The c onfiguration for the IP service also has HTTP configured.
•The appropriate access policy filters are configured for HTTP.
You specify these requirements as part of the IP configuration process, using the
BCC. For additional information about IP access control filters and how to
configure them, see Configuring IP Utilitie s. For general instructions about using
the BCC, see Using the Bay Command Console (BCC).

Viewing the Event Log
An event is something that happens to the operating status of a router. The router
stores the event as a single entry in a memory-resident log. The event log for a
router is the composite of all the events that occur for all the processors in the
router.
An event message provides a brief description of an event, along with the event
code associated with that event. Use the event code to look up the meaning of the
message and what you must do about it in Event Messages for Route rs. To view
the events for a router, click on Fault > Events in the navigational frame.

Managing Your Network Using the HTTP Server
Interpreting Event Messages
Event Messages for Router s provides detailed information about interpreting
event messages and taking appropriate action. Most messages document routine
occurrences that do not requir e you to do anything. Table 5-1 lists the severity
leve ls and provides brief descri ptions of them.
Table 5-1.Event Message Severity Levels
SeverityDescription
FaultIndi cates a major service disruption. A configuration, network, or
hardware problem usually causes such a disruption. The entities
involved keep restarting until the probl em is re solved either by the
router itself or by you.
WarningIndicates that a service acted in an unexpected manner.
InfoIndicates routine events. Usually, no action is required.
TraceProvides a detai led history of ev erythi ng that happens on the router.
Because of the amount of in formation that the Trace function records,
Bay Networks recommends viewing t his type of message only when
diagnosing specific network problems.
DebugIndicates informati on that Bay Networks Customer Support uses . With
few exceptions, these messages do not appear in
