5  Introduction to the Web Platform

5.1  Logging In to the Web Platform

Context

Before logging in to the web platform, ensure that:

  • The IP address of the device's access port has been configured.
  • The device and your PC are properly connected.
  • The device is running properly, and the HTTP and HTTPS services are correctly configured.
  • The web browser software has been installed on your PC.
b91c0406b4bc4a8a824a3b9ea2552eab NOTE:
  • The IP address 169.254.1.1 and subnet mask 255.255.0.0 have been configured on MEth0/0/1 of the AC6605 before the delivery.
  • The IP address 169.254.1.1 and subnet mask 255.255.0.0 have been configured on VLANIF 1 of the AC6005 before the delivery, and interfaces GE0/0/1 to GE0/0/8 have been added to VLAN 1 by default.
  • Before the device is delivered, the Telnet service has been configured on the device. The Telnet port number is 23, and the default user name and password are respectively admin and admin@huawei.com.
  • Before the device is delivered, the HTTP and HTTPS services have been configured on the device. The default port number is 80 for HTTP and 443 for HTTPS. The default user name and password are respectively admin and admin@huawei.com.

Figure 5-1 shows the running environment of the web platform that can be managed and configured on your PC.

Procedure

  1. Open a browser such as Internet Explorer 8.0, enter http://IP address or https://IP address in the address box, for example, http://169.254.1.1 or https://169.254.1.1, and press Enter. (For the IP address, see IP addresses of access interfaces configured in 3.3 Configuring an IP Address for Web Platform Login.) The web platform login page is displayed.

    b91c0406b4bc4a8a824a3b9ea2552eab NOTE:

    When a user logs in to a device through HTTP, the HTTPS login page is displayed. If the HTTPS service is unavailable, for example, the HTTPS service is not enabled, or the HTTPS service is enabled but not bound to an SSL policy, the incorrect page is displayed.

  2. Enter the login information.

    1. Select a language.

      The system supports English and Chinese. By default, the system uses the same language as the browser.

    2. Enter a user name and password.

      The default user name and password are admin and admin@huawei.com.

    3. Click Login.
    4. To modify all login information, click Reset to clear the login user and password.

    b91c0406b4bc4a8a824a3b9ea2552eab NOTE:
    • If the message "Username or password is wrong!" is displayed, the entered user name or password is incorrect. In such a case, click OK and enter the user name and password again.
    • If the message "The number of login users have reached maximum!" is displayed, the number of concurrent online users reaches the maximum. By default, the web platform supports a maximum of five concurrent online users.
    • If the message "User has no right to login!" is displayed during login, the user has no right to log in to the web platform. In this case, contact the network administrator.
    • If the message "The number of incorrect passwords reaches limit. Your account is locked!" is displayed during login, the user is locked and will be automatically unlocked 15 minutes later.

  3. Click Logout in the upper right corner to Log out of the web platform. The login page is displayed.
  4. If you do not perform any operation within a specified duration (10 minutes by default), you are logged out. To return to the login page, click OK.
