Using the Management Console
The web-based Management Console enables you to manage Client Accelerator Controllers from anywhere on your network. To access the controller, you’ll need:
• the URL or IP address of the host or appliance.
• the administrator password that you assigned when you set up your controller using the initial configuration wizard.
• a web browser with JavaScript and cookies enabled.
If you use HTTPS to connect, you might be prompted to inspect and verify the SSL certificate. By default, the controller uses a self-signed certificate, which provides encrypted web connections to the Management Console. The certificate is re-created when the appliance hostname changes and when the certificate has expired.
The default login is admin, and the default password is password. Users with administrator privileges can configure and administer the controller. Users with monitor privileges can view reports and user logs, and change their own password. A monitor user can’t make configuration changes.
