Try the following:

Switch(config)#ip http server
Switch(config)#ip http authentication enable

This tells the switch to use the enable password for web access too.

OR

Switch(config)#ip http server
Switch(config)#ip http authentication local
Switch(config)#username ray password mosely

This tells the switch to use the local user database for access, plus it
will add you to it.

As for books, I am currently reading the BCMSN book by Karen Webb which is a
little too technical sometimes. I also just bought the CCIE LAN Switching
book which is a heavy thing, but after having flipped some pages I think it
looks pretty good. There are many good reviews about it. Also, many people
think that the Exam Cram book is good too - but I haven't seen it.

Hth,

Ole

Subject: Catalyst 2900XL Web Management password



I've got a 2900XL that my predecessor set up.
I went through the Cisco routine for recovering
from lost passwords, and have good console and
telnet access to the CLI.

But I can't get into the Web interface.  It asks 
for a username and password.

Two questions:
1.  how can I change the web interface username
        and password from the CLI?
2.  any primers or tutorials on Catalyst switches
        than anyone can recommend?  Quick and dirty,
        and on the Web, just until I can get some 
        books ordered.

Thanks,
Ray Mosely, CCNA
