Services: HTTP - Web Server
 

You use the Web Server page to enable browsing to the web-based management system, specify the location of the Help files, and enter settings for a custom-tailored web system for management.

Allow Web-based Configuration Management

Select Enabled to allow browsing to the management system. If you select Disabled, the management system is accessible only through the Telnet interfaces.

HTTP Port

This setting determines the port through which your device provides web access. Use the port setting provided by your System Administrator. The default is 80.

Default Help Root URL

This entry tells the device where to look for help files. The Help button on each management system page opens a new browser window displaying help for that page.

You can point to the help files in one of three possible locations:

  • Internet -- Cisco maintains up-to-date help for devices on the Cisco website. While this location requires online access for every occasion of needing online help, it offers the most up-to-date information.
  • File Server--On multi-user networks, the help files can be placed on the network file server. For this location, enter the full directory URL in the Default Help Root URL entry field. Your entry might look like this:
    [system name]\[directory]\c:\wireless\help
  • Hard Drive--You can copy the help files to the hard drive of the computer you use to manage the wireless LAN. Go to http://www.cisco.com/public/sw-center/sw-wireless.shtml to download the help files for your particular release. The readme.txt file explains how to download the help files to your hard drive. This URL starting with file:// may not be accessible if the security settings of your browser are not set appropriately. Your entry might look like this:
    file:///[Drive letter]:\[folder or subdirectory]\wireless\help
