PingAuthorize

Signing on to the PingAuthorize admin console

After deploying or installing the server, access the PingAuthorize admin console to verify the server configuration and manage server settings.

  • Docker deployment

  • Manual installation

When using Docker containers, the containers must be on the same Docker network to communicate properly.

Steps

  1. Start the admin console.

    The following command uses the ~/.pingidentity/config environment file to configure common environment variables. Learn more in the Ping DevOps documentation.

    docker run \
  --env-file ~/.pingidentity/config \
  --name pingdataconsole \
  --detach \
  --env BRANDING_APP_NAME="PingAuthorize Admin Console" \
  --publish 5443:8443 \
  --tmpfs /run/secrets \
  pingidentity/pingdataconsole:<TAG>

    The Docker image <TAG> used in the example is only a placeholder. You can find actual tag values in Docker Hub.

  2. Go to https://<host>:<port>/console and sign on using the following information.

    Given the example docker run command used in step 1, the <port> would be 5443.

    • Server: pingauthorize:1636

    • Username: administrator

    • Password: 2FederateM0re

If submitting the form results in a "Server unavailable" error, wait longer for the containers to reach an equilibrium "healthy" state.

Steps

  1. Start the PingAuthorize Server.

    <server-root>/bin/start-server

  2. To access the admin console, go to https://<host>:<port>/console.

    The default port is 8443.

  3. In the Username and Password fields, enter the initial root user distinguished name (DN) and root user password specified during setup.

    The default DN is cn=Directory Manager.
