ProSAFE 10-Gigabit Smart Managed Switch XS728T and XS748T User Manual
From the Security > Management Security > Authentication List menu, you can access
the pages that are described in the following sections:
• Configure an HTTP Authentication List on page 239
• Configure an HTTPS Authentication List on page 240
Configure an HTTP Authentication List
Use the HTTP Authentication List page to configure the default HTTP login list.
 To change the HTTP authentication method for the default list:
1. Connect your computer to the same network as the switch.
You can use a WiFi or wired connection to connect your computer to the network, or
connect directly to a switch that is off-network using an Ethernet cable.
2. Launch a web browser.
3. In the address field of your web browser, enter the IP address of the switch.
If you do not know the IP address of the switch, see Change the Default IP Address of the
Switch on page 10.
The login window opens.
4. Enter the switch’s password in the Password field.
The default password is password.
The System Information page displays.
5. Select Security > Management Security > Authentication List > HTTP Authentication
List.
6. Select the check box for the httpList name.
7. From the menu in the 1 column, select the authentication method that must be used first in
the selected authentication login list.
If you select a method that does not time out as the first method, such as Local or None,
you cannot configure a second and third method. If you configure another method and
then select Local or None as the first method, no other method is tried. User
authentication occurs in the order that the methods are selected. Possible methods are
as follows:
• Local. The user’s locally stored ID and password are used for authentication. This is
the default method. Because the Local method does not time out, if you select this
option as the first method, no other method is tried, even if you specified more than
one method.
