Configuring and Accessing the Web User Interface
The persistent web user interface transport map configuration must be performed in addition to the
legacy web user interface configuration, which is configured using the ip http command set. The ip http
command settings define which ports are used by HTTP or HTTPS for both the legacy and
graphics-based web user interface.
For information on configuring the entire graphics-based web user interface, including the configuration
of persistent web user interface transport maps, see the
Access" section on page
Configuring the Router for Web User Interface Access
The ability to access either web user interface on the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Routers is disabled by
default.
The legacy web user interface must be configured before the graphics-based web user interface can be
enabled.
The web user interface will not work if the Management Ethernet interface has not been configured or
Note
is not working; specifically, the default route must be specified in the Management Ethernet VRF before
the web user interface can be configured.
See the
Management Ethernet interface on your router. See the
Ethernet Interface VRF" section on page 9-4
the Management Ethernet interface on your router.
To enable the entire web user interface, perform the following tasks:
Step 1
(Optional) Ensure the clock setting on your router is accurate by entering the show clock command.
Router# show clock
*13:56:59.257 DST Mon May 5 2008
If the router time is not properly set, use the clock set and clock timezone commands for setting the
router clock.
The
Note
clock settings on both the router and the web-browser can impact the web user interface.
Connect to your router and enter the configure terminal command to enter global configuration mode.
Step 2
Enable the legacy web user interface by entering one of the following global configuration commands:

The legacy web user interface becomes available at this point of the procedure. Users attempting to
access the web user interface after this step is completed will see the legacy web user interface only.
To enable the graphics-based web user interface, proceed to
