1.1 Accessing the Appliance Management Console

Secure API Manager provides an appliance management console that allows you to configure network settings, apply field patches, apply updates, and perform many other tasks. You access the appliance management console for each appliance you have deployed. If you have deployed the Secure API Manager components on separate appliances and clustered the components, you have to access each appliance to apply patches and change network settings.

  1. In a web browser, specify the DNS name or the IP address for the appliance with the port number 9443. For example:

    https://10.10.10.1:9443

    or

    https://ip-address-or-dns-name-appliance:9443

  2. Specify the administrative user name and password for the appliance, then click Sign in. The default user is root.

    IMPORTANT:You must add a password for the vaadmin account to configure Secure API Manager in the Access Manager Administration Console.

  3. You can configure and manage your appliance and this point.
