  3. Select the Management tab.
  4. If you want to enable a loopback address for the device, enter an address and corresponding subnet mask in the Loopback address section.
  5. If you want to enable an IPv4 address for the device, select IPv4 address and enter a corresponding management port, subnet mask, and default gateway.
  6. Click OK to save the configuration or Cancel to clear it.

Enabling Access Services

You can use the Services tab to specify the type of connections that users can make to the device. For instance, you can enable secure HTTPS sessions to the device or enable access to the JUNOScript XML scripting API.

  6. Select Enable HTTP if you want users to connect to device interfaces over an HTTP connection. Then specify the interfaces that should use the HTTP connection:
  7. If you want users to connect to device interfaces over a secure HTTPS connection, select Enable HTTPS. Then select which certificate you want to use to secure the connection from the HTTPS certificates list and specify the interfaces that should use the HTTPS connection:
  8. Click OK to save the configuration or Cancel to clear it.

To verify that Web access is enabled correctly, connect to the device using one of the following methods:

Adding, Editing, and Deleting Certificates on the Device

You can use the Certificates tab to upload SSL certificates to the device, edit existing certificates on the device, or delete certificates from the device. You can use the certificates to secure HTTPS and JUNOScript sessions. (For information about how to generate an SSL certificate to upload to the device, see Generating SSL Certificates.)

To add, edit, or delete a certificate:
