12 Intel NetStructure Cache Appliance Administrator’s Guide
Accessing the Manager UI
The Manager UI is a browser-based interface, consisting of a series of web pages.
Use the Manager UI to monitor performance and configure and fine-tune selected
nodes in your cluster. You can access any node in the cluster through the same
Manager UI.
▼Accessing the Manager UI
1Open your web browser.
The Manager UI requires Java and JavaScript; be sure to enable Java and
JavaScript.
2Point your browser at this location, where nodename is the IP address you
have assigned to the appliance or the qualified DNS name. If the appliance is
part of a cluster, you will be logging into that specific node:
3Provide your appliance administrator’s ID and password. By default, the
administrator ID is admin and the password is admin. It is recommended
that you change the default administrator ID and password. You can change
these values by using the Security page. For information on how to use the
Security page, see Using the Security page‚ on page 39.
Note Should you forget your password, contact Customer Service at Intel
Corporation for assistance. For information on how to contact Intel Customer
Service, see the Intel NetStructure Cache Appliance Product Support booklet
that came with your system.
Note Changing ID and password values by using the Manager UI changes those
values for the node you are logging into only. Furthermore, changing the ID
and password for the Manager UI does not change the ID and password for
telnet access. You must use the command-line interface (CLI) to change the
telnet ID and password for the node.
The Manager UI appears in your browser in the default monitor mode. The
Dashboard page, as shown Figure 1, is the default page. From the
MONITOR and CONFIGURE tabs to the left of the Dashboard page, you
can reach all other Manager UI pages.
