To sign on to the administrative console, you must know the root user distinguished name (DN) or the common name (CN) of a root user DN.

For example, if the DN created when the server was installed is cn=Directory Manager, you can use Directory Manager as the username to sign on to the administrative console.

Note:

To run the administrative console in an external container, such as Tomcat, see Deploying the administrative console.

  • To access the administrative console, go to https://<host>:<port>/console/login.
    <host> is the hostname of the server, and <port> is the port on which the server accepts connections from HTTPS clients. This was configured during the install.
