Logging on to the OpenBMC GUI

Learn how to log on to the OpenBMC GUI.

To log on to the OpenBMC GUI, complete the following steps:

1. Open a supported web browser. In the address bar, enter the IP address of the BMC that you want to connect to. For example, you can use the format https://<BMC IP> in the address bar of the web browser.
2. From the OpenBMC logon window, enter the Host address of the BMC and the Username and Password that is assigned to you.
   Note: The default user ID is root and the default password is 0penBmc.

   If you are using firmware level OP940.01, or later, the root password is expired by default. You must change the default password before you can access the BMC. For more information about changing the expired default password, see Setting the password.

   If you forgot your password, you can perform a factory reset of the system to restore the default password. To reset the system, see Performing a factory reset.

3. Click Log in.
