Cisco IOS Web Browser Commands

Cisco IOS Web Browser Commands

This chapter provides detailed descriptions of the commands used to issue Cisco IOS commands from the Cisco Web browser accessible from the home page of your router.

For configuration tasks and examples, refer to the "Using the Cisco Web Browser" chapter in the Cisco IOS Configuration Fundamentals Configuration Guide.

international

If you are Telnet to access a Cisco IOS platform and you want to display 8-bit and multibyte international characters (for example, Kanji) and print the Escape character as a single character instead of as the caret and bracket symbols (^[), use the international line configuration command. Use the no form of this command to display characters in 7-bit format.

international

no international

Syntax Description

This command has no arguments or keywords.

Defaults

Disabled

Command Modes

Line configuration

Command History
Release Modification

11.3

This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

If you are configuring a Cisco IOS platform using the Cisco Web browser interface, this feature is enabled automatically when you enable the Cisco Web browser using the ip http server command.

Examples

The following example enables a Cisco IOS platform to display 8-bit and multibyte characters and print the ESC character as a single character instead of as the caret and bracket symbols (^[) when you are using Telnet to access the platform:

international

Related Commands
Command Description

terminal international

Prints the Escape character as a single character instead of as the caret and bracket symbols (^[) for a current Telnet session in instances when you are using Telnet to access a Cisco IOS platform and you want to display 8-bit and multibyte international characters (for example, Kanji).

ip http access-class

To assign an access list to the Hypertext Transfer Protocol server used by the Cisco IOS ClickStart software or the Cisco Web browser interface, use the ip http access-class global configuration command. To remove the assigned access list, use the no form of this command.

ip http access-class {access-list-number | name}

no ip http access-class {access-list-number | name}

Syntax Description

access-list-number

Standard IP access list number in the range 0 to 99, as configured by the access-list (standard) command.

name

Name of a standard IP access list, as configured by the ip access-list command.

Defaults

There is no access list applied to the HTTP server.

Command Modes

Global configuration

Command History
Release Modification

11.2

This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

If this command is configured, the specified access list is assigned to the HTTP server. Before the HTTP server accepts a connection, it checks the access list. If the check fails, the HTTP server does not accept the request for a connection.

Examples

The following example assigns the access list named marketing to the HTTP server:

ip http access-class marketing
ip access-list standard marketing
 permit 192.5.34.0  0.0.0.255
 permit 128.88.0.0  0.0.255.255
 permit 36.0.0.0  0.255.255.255
! (Note: all other access implicitly denied)

Related Commands
Command Description

ip access-list

Defines an IP access list by name.

ip http server

Enables monitoring or configuring of routers using the Cisco Web Browser interface.

ip http authentication

To specify a particular authentication method for Hypertext Transfer Protocol server users, use the ip http authentication global configuration command. Use the no form of this command to disable a configured authentication method.

ip http authentication {aaa | enable | local | tacacs}

no ip http authentication {aaa | enable | local | tacacs}

Syntax Description

aaa

Indicates that the AAA facility is used for authentication.

enable

Indicates that the enable password method, which is the default method of HTTP server user authentication, is used for authentication.

local

Indicates that the local user database as defined on the Cisco router or access server is used for authentication.

tacacs

Indicates that the TACACS or XTACACS server is used for authentication.

Defaults

The default method of authentication for the HTTP server interface is the enable password method.

Command Modes

Global configuration

Command History
Release Modification

11.2 F

This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

The ip http authentication command enables you to specify a particular authentication method for HTTP server users. The HTTP server uses the enable password method to authenticate a user at privilege level 15. The ip http authentication command now lets you specify enable, local, TACACS, or AAA HTTP server user authentication.

Examples

The following example specifies TACACS as the method of HTTP server user authentication:

ip http authentication tacacs

Command Description

ip http server

Enables a Cisco 1003, Cisco 1004, or Cisco 1005 router to be configured from a browser using the Cisco IOS ClickStart software, and enables any router to be monitored or have its configuration modified from a browser using the Cisco Web browser interface.

ip http port

To specify the port to be used by the Cisco IOS ClickStart software or the Cisco Web browser interface, use the ip http port global configuration command. To use the default port, use the no form of this command.

ip http port number

no ip http port

Syntax Description

number

Port number for use by ClickStart or the Cisco Web browser interface.

Defaults

80

Command Modes

Global configuration

Command History
Release Modification

11.2

This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

Use this command if ClickStart or the Cisco Web browser interface cannot use port 80.

Examples

The following example configures the router so that you can use ClickStart or the Cisco Web browser interface via port 60:

ip http server
ip http port 60

Related Commands
Command Description

ip http server

Enables a Cisco 1003, Cisco 1004, or Cisco 1005 router to be configured from a browser using the Cisco IOS ClickStart software, and enables any router to be monitored or have its configuration modified from a browser using the Cisco Web browser interface.

ip http server

To enable the Cisco Web browser interface on a router or access server, use the ip http server global configuration command. To disable this feature, use the no form of this command.

ip http server

no ip http server

Syntax Description

This command has no arguments or keywords.

Defaults

This feature is automatically enabled on Cisco 1003, Cisco 1004, and Cisco 1005 routers that have not yet been configured. For Cisco 1003, Cisco 1004, and Cisco 1005 routers that have already been configured, and for all other routers, this feature is disabled.

Command Modes

Global configuration

Usage Guidelines

The Cisco Web browser interface (which enables your router to perform as an HTTP server) allows configuration and monitoring of a router or access server using any web browser. Enabling the Cisco Web browser interface also allows Cisco 1003, Cisco 1004, and Cisco 1005 routers to be configured from a browser using the Cisco IOS Click Start software.

To view the home page of the router, use a Web browser pointed to http://x.y.z.t, where x.y.z.t is the IP address of your router or access server, or, if a name has been set, use http://router-name. Varying forms of authentication for login can be set using the ip http authentication command, but the default login method is entering the enable password when prompted.

For information on accessing a router Web page at a privilege level other the the default of 15 (privileged EXEC mode), see the "Using the Cisco Web Browser to Issue Commands" section of the Cisco IOS Configuration Fundamentals Configuration Guide.
