Solved: http server enable does not work

mcmcomcisco · ‎03-14-2007

I cannot seem to set my PIX to allow http access (ie: the web interface). I tried http server enable at the command line and it does not work.

when i type "show http" i see the following:

http server disabled

192.168.8.0 255.255.255 0 inside

and when i type show http server i see:

Usage [no] http <local_ip> [<mask>] [<if_name>]

[no] http server enable

any way to enable this web interface?

do not put anything in username block.keep it blank.

the password which you need is the " enable prompt " password.by default it's blank too.

if you have n't set any password on enable prompt ,then keep the username and pass blank and you should be able to access pdm.

if you have setup an " enable password by the command :

enable password ,please use that .
