CNA question: enabled http is a must?

[t.goldpergel]

Hi,

I have a simple question: Enabled HTTP is a must for connect Cisco Network Assistant to a switch (for example Cat3560v2) or https access is enough?

thx in advance!

Hi Tivadar,

IP HTTP server or HTTPS server needs to be enabled in order to allow the CNA to access the device. There are some more options you can configure.

Have a look here (it is for the 4500 series):

I hope that helps :-)

Dear Nathanael,

http server _OR_ https server needs to be enabeled?

My experince was if only https (and not hte http) was enabled network assistant didn't work.

Your issue seems similar to :

it may be a broken HTTPS if you have CNA 5.7.x. You may open a TAC case to check further.

-Thanks

Hello,

HTTPS was a little bit broken in 5.7. We have fixed it in 5.7.6 and it will be released in the next day or so.

Thanks and thanks for using CNA!

Thanks William!

Https works with ver 5.7.6

Unfortunately 5.7.5 was using when we upgraded our switches to https capable.

Kind regards,

Tivadar
