Logging in and out from the IVIG Service Center

This scenario describes how to log in and out from the IVIG Service Center. Use a web browser to access the login page. You can establish either a secure (HTTPS) or unsecure (HTTP) connection to the IVIG Service Center.

Before you begin

Use the IVIG Service Center Login page URL that is provided by your site administrator. The URL contains settings that were used when the IVIG Service Center was installed and configured. For example, the URL might be:
  • http://hostname:port/itim/ui/
  • https://hostname:port/itim/ui/
This URL is made up of:
  • The name of the host system http://hostname that runs the IVIG Service Center. hostname is the name or IP address of the system where your product is installed.
  • The port number of the IVIG Service Center. For example, 9080.
  • The context for the IVIG Service Center. This part is always the same:
    /itim/ui/

Ensure that the correct URL is established.

Note: The default setting for Microsoft Internet Explorer, version 10 is Browser mode: IE10. Make sure that you use the default setting, otherwise all the login elements in the page might not display properly. For more information, see IVIG Service Center login orientation error in Internet Explorer 10.0 in IBM Verify Identity Governance Troubleshooting Guide.

Follow these steps to log in or log out the IVIG Service Center.
