Accessing the cloud console user interface

Navigate to and log in to the Cloud Manager user interface.

Before you begin

The first time that you access the Cloud Manager user interface, you must change the Cloud Administrator password and configure the API Connect cloud.

To access the Cloud Manager user interface after you install IBM® API Connect, you must log in.

Procedure

To log in to the Cloud Manager, complete the following steps:

  1. In a web browser, enter the URL of the Management server.
    For example, https://ManagementHostname.domain/cmc where ManagementHostname.domain is the fully qualified host name or IP address of the initial Management server. For example:
    • MySubdomain.MyDomain.com
    • 9.51.111.121
    The cloud console login window opens.
  2. Enter the Cloud Administrator user name and password. If you did not change the user name and password during the installation process, enter the default values of admin for the user name and !n0r1t5@C for the password.
    Note: This console uses a US keyboard configuration, in which the @ symbol can be in a different place to other keyboard configurations. If you are not using a US keyboard, please ensure that you have typed the password correctly.
  3. Click Sign In.
    Important: The first time that you access the cloud console, you must, for security reasons, enter a new password and your email address. If you forget your password and request a password reset, the notification email is sent to this email address.

Results

The Cloud Manager user interface opens.
