Explorer 10 (or later), Firefox 2.0.0.11 (or later), or Google Chrome on your
PC and enter the management interface IP address on the browser window. The
management interface IP address is same as the gigabitethernet 0/0 (also known
as service port interface). When you log in for the first time, you need to
enter HTTP username and password. By default, the username is
admin and the
password is
cisco.
You can use both
HTTP and HTTPS when using the service port interface. HTTPS is enabled by
default and HTTP can also be enabled.
