Starting the Web-based Configuration Utility

This section describes how to navigate the web-based switch configuration utility.
If you are using a pop-up blocker, make sure it is disabled.
Browser Restrictions
If you are using IPv6 interfaces on your management station, use the IPv6 global address and not the IPv6 link local address to access the device from your browser.
Cisco 500 Series Stackable Managed Switch Administration Guide 10

Getting Started
Starting the Web-based Configuration Utility

Launching the Configuration Utility

To open the web-based configuration utility:
STEP 1 Open a Web browser.
STEP 2 Enter the IP address of the device you are configuring in the address bar on the
browser, and then press Enter.
NOTE When the device is using the factory default IP address of 192.168.1.254, its power
LED flashes continuously. When the device is using a DHCP-assigned IP address or an administrator-configured static IP address, the power LED is on solid.
Logging In
The default username is cisco and the default password is cisco. The first time that you log in with the default username and password, you are required to enter a new password.
NOTE If you have not previously selected a language for the GUI, the language of the Login
page is determined by the language(s) requested by your browser and the languages configured on your device. If your browser requests Chinese, for example, and Chinese has been loaded into your device, the Login page is automatically displayed in Chinese. If Chinese has not been loaded into your device, the Login page appears in English.
The languages loaded into the device have a language and country code (en-US, en-GB and so on). For the Login page to be automatically displayed in a particular language, based on the browser request, both the language and country code of the browser request must match those of the language loaded on the device. If the browser request contains only the language code without a country code (for example: fr). The first embedded language with a matching language code is taken (without matching the country code, for example: fr_CA).
To log in to the device configuration utility:
STEP 1 Enter the username/password. The password can contain up to 64 ASCII
characters. Password-complexity rules are described in Setting Password
Complexity Rules.
STEP 2 If you are not using English, select the desired language from the Language drop-
down menu. To add a new language to the device or update a current one, see
Upgrade/Backup Firmware/Language.

Getting Started
Starting the Web-based Configuration Utility
STEP 3 If this is the first time that you logged on with the default user ID (cisco) and the
default password (cisco) or your password has expired, the Change Password Page appears. See Password Expiration for additional information.
STEP 4 Choose whether to select Disable Password Complexity Enforcement or not.
For more information on password complexity, see the Setting Password
Complexity Rules section.
STEP 5 Enter the new password and click Apply.
When the login attempt is successful, the Getting Started page appears.
If you entered an incorrect username or password, an error message appears and the Login page remains displayed on the window. If you are having problems logging in, please see the Launching the Configuration Utility section in the Administration Guide for additional information.
Select Don't show this page on startup to prevent the Getting Started page from being displayed each time that you log on to the system. If you select this option, the System Summary page is opened instead of the Getting Started page.

HTTP/HTTPS
You can either open an HTTP session (not secured) by clicking Log In, or you can open an HTTPS (secured) session, by clicking Secure Browsing (HTTPS). You are asked to approve the logon with a default RSA key, and an HTTPS session is opened.
NOTE There is no need to input the username/password prior to clicking the Secure
Browsing (HTTPS) button.
For information on how to configure HTTPS, see SSL Server.
Password Expiration
The New Password page is displayed in the following cases:
• The first time that you access the device with the default username cisco
and password cisco. This page forces you to replace the factory default password.
• When the password expires, this page forces you to select a new
password.

Logging Out
By default, the application logs out after ten minutes of inactivity. You can change this default value as described in the Defining Idle Session Timeout section.
!
CAUTION Unless the Running Configuration is copied to the Startup Configuration, rebooting
the device removes all changes made since the last time the file was saved. Save the Running Configuration to the Startup Configuration before logging off to preserve any changes you made during this session.
A flashing red X icon to the left of the Save application link indicates that Running Configuration changes have not yet been saved to the Startup Configuration file. The flashing can be disabled by clicking on the Disable Save Icon Blinking button on the Copy/Save Configuration page
When the device auto-discovers a device, such as an IP phone (see What is a
Smartport), and it configures the port appropriately for the device. These
configuration commands are written to the Running Configuration file. This causes the Save icon to begin blinking when the you log on, even though you did not make any configuration changes.
When you click Save, the Copy/Save Configuration page appears. Save the Running Configuration file by copying it to the Startup Configuration file. After this save, the red X icon and the Save application link are no longer displayed.
To l o g o u t , c li ck Logout in the top right corner of any page. The system logs out of the device.
When a timeout occurs or you intentionally log out of the system, a message is displayed and the Login page appears, with a message indicating the logged-out state. After you log in, the application returns to the initial page.
The initial page displayed depends on the “Do not show this page on startup” option in the Getting Started page. If you did not select this option, the initial page is the Getting Started page. If you did select this option, the initial page is the System Summary page.

TCAM Utilization

TCAM Utilization
The device architecture uses a Ternary Content Addressable Memory (TCAM) to support packet actions in wire speed.
TCAM holds the rules produced by applications, such as ACLs (Access Control Lists), Quality of Service (QoS), IP Routing and user-created rules.
Some applications allocate rules upon their initiation. Additionally, processes that initialize during system boot use some of their rules during the startup process.
To view TCAM utilization, click Status and Statistics > TCAM Utilization.
The following fields are displayed for SG500X/SG500XG devices and for Sx500 devices in Layer 3 system mode and when the device is part of a stack (per unit):
