Changing the Username and Password
The Remote Control Administrator user account is required to log in when you first configure
the server from a web browser. The default username is
admin
and the default password is
admin
. Wavelink recommends you change at least one of these. You must log in using the
account (or an Administrator Avalanche account) in order to change it.
After you have completed the initial configuration of Remote Control and provided the
database address and password, use your Avalanche username and password to log in to
Remote Control. Avalanche user permissions will be enforced. Only an Avalanche
Administrator will be able to view the Setup or System menus.
To change the Remote Control Administrator username and password:
1
From the Remote Control Console, click
Password
in the System Menu.
2
Type the new username and password in the text boxes. When you change the password,
you must type it a second time in the
Retype Password
text box to confirm that it is
correct.

Synchronizing with the Avalanche License Server
Remote Control must connect to the Avalanche license server in order to distribute licenses.
The port 7221 should be unblocked between the Remote Control server and the Avalanche
license server. The Avalanche license server is usually installed at the same location as the
enterprise server. Configure the Avalanche server address for Remote Control after the server
is installed from the Remote Control Console.
You can check to ensure the Remote Control server can contact the Avalanche license server
from the Remote Control Console.
To configure the license server information from a web browser:
1
From the Remote Control Console, click
Licensing
in the System Menu.
2
Type the address of the Avalanche server in the
License Server
text box. The default
Port
for the license server is 7221.
3
Click
Verify
to check if Remote Control can contact the license server.
