How to Configure Cisco IOS Web Server Authentication

Configure Cisco IOS Web server authentication (HTTP and HTTPS) is a common configuration used on the equipment used in the production network, such as Cisco routers running the host Web based device management interface of Cisco Security Device Manager (SDM) Cisco Catalyst converter Web interface hosting management only users of the Web interface for authentication.

• Than load if you use GNS3 CCNA free Binder GNS3 topology than starting system R1.
• Create R1 than configuring a device with the device console session respects the hostname (s).
• Using GNS3 if you complete this lab than Ethernet NIO cloud is the need to connect to R1 ′ s FastEthernet1/0 interface. Reference laboratory for 1-8--configured to GNS3 Ethernet configuration NIO NIO cloud clouds.
• Configuration for Web authentication in this lab level 15 privileges of the local user account.
• With DHCP or static IP addresses, your local configuration of LAN FastEthernet0/0 interface, so you can access the Web browser Internet Explorer or Firefox browser through the exchanger.

Lab Objectives:

• Configure R1 to use the domain name "stubarea.NET".
• By using IP HTTP Secure-Server global configuration command to enable Cisco IOS secure Web server.
• Configure Cisco IOS Web services authenticate local user database.
• FastEthernet0/0 IP address by connecting to the device through the Internet Explorer or Firefox and use the lab the credentials configured in the prerequisites section to verify your configuration.

Lab Instruction:

R1 con0 is now available

Press RETURN to get started.

R1>enable

R1#configure terminal

Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.

R1(config)#ip domain-name

Step 1. Cisco IOS security-enabled Web servers by performing the IP HTTP Secure-Server global configuration command, as shown below;

R11(config)#ip http secure-server

% Generating 1024 bit RSA keys, keys will be non-exportable...[OK]

%SSH-5-ENABLED: SSH 1.99 has been enabled

R1(config)#

Step 2. Configuring Cisco IOS Web services authenticate local user database, as shown below;

R1(config)#ip http authentication local

Step 3. FastEthernet0/0 IP address by connecting to the device through the Internet Explorer or Firefox and use the lab the credentials configured in the prerequisites section to verify your configuration.
