Logging in and out

The IAP Web Interface can be accessed from a client desktop using regular http protocol as well as secure http protocol (https), for better protection during the authentication. The IAP Web UI now supports secure http by default. If you use regular http, you will be redirected automatically to secure https protocol. Once logged in, you can used regular http if needed.

2.Enter your user name and password (provided by your system administrator). Both fields are case-sensitive. Click Login. The Simple Search page is displayed.
