4.2 Logging In
4.2.1 Login to the IP ACCESS KVM SWITCH CLASSIC
Launch your web browser. Direct it to the address of your IP ACCESS KVM SWITCH CLASSIC
which you configured during the installation process. The address used might be a plain IP
address or a host and domain name if you have given your IP ACCESS KVM SWITCH
CLASSIC switch a symbolic name in the DNS.
Example: Type the following in the address line of your browser when establishing an
unsecured connection:
http://<IP address of IP ACCESS KVM SWITCH CLASSIC>
When using a secure connection, type in:
https://<IP address of IP ACCESS KVM SWITCH CLASSIC>
This will lead you to the IP ACCESS KVM SWITCH CLASSIC login page as shown below:
The IP ACCESS KVM SWITCH CLASSIC has a built-in super user account that has all the
permissions enabled to administrate your IP ACCESS KVM SWITCH CLASSIC switch:
Login name super (factory default)
Password
pass (factory default)
Please note: Your web browser has to accept cookies, or else login is not possible.
Please make sure you change the super user password immediately after you have installed
and accessed your IP ACCESS KVM SWITCH CLASSIC for the first time. Not changing the
password for the super user is a severe security risk and could result in unauthorized access to
the switch and to the host system(s) to which it is connected.
Note:
The user “super” is not allowed to login via the serial interface of the IP-KVM switch.
