PingIntelligence

Accessing the PingIntelligence Dashboard

Access the PingIntelligence for APIs Dashboard from a browser at the default Uniform Resource Locator (URL): https://<pi_install_host>:8030.

About this task

There are two preconfigured login users in PingIntelligence for APIs Dashboard:

  • admin

  • ping_user

Multiple users can share the admin and ping_user logins simultaneously on PingIntelligence Dashboard. The admin user has access to all PingIntelligence Dashboard functions. A ping_user can only view the application programming interface (API) dashboards.

The PingIntelligence Dashboard is categorized into the following components:

Steps

  1. At the sign-on prompt, sign on as admin or ping_user.

    The default password for both the users is changeme.

    You must change the default password for production deployments. However, in a Docker Proof of Concept deployment, use the default password.

    If the Dashboard is not accessible, check if the default port (8030) was changed by your system administrator.

  2. Optional: Change the password using the following command-line interface (CLI) command:

    #  <pi_install_dir>/webgui/bin/cli.sh -u admin update_ui_password --username -value  <admin or ping_user>  --new-password -p
Enter admin password >  <current admin password>
Enter new password >  <new password>
Reenter new password >  <new password>
success: password updated.

  3. Optional: To configure the maximum number of active sessions, set the pi.webgui.session.max-active-sessions parameter in the <pi_install_dir>/webgui/config/webgui.properties file.

    The default value is 50.

  4. Optional: To delete active sessions, enter the following command:

    #  <pi_install_dir>/webgui/bin/cli.sh -u  <username>  -p  <password>  delete_sessions

    You need to have admin user privileges to delete active user sessions.

    Result:

    The current active users will be prompted to sign on again to the Dashboard.
