the Web Manager

Once you’ve connected your ACS 6000 console server to a network, you can access the console
server with its web manager. The web manager provides direct access to the console server via a
graphical user interface instead of a command-based interface.
NOTE: For instructions on accessing the console server via the CLI or DSView 3 software see the Cyclades ACS
6000 Command Reference Guide or the DSView 3 Installer/User Guide.

NOTE: For an overview of the web manager for regular users, see Web Manager Overview for Regular Users on
page 69.
To log into the web manager:
1. Open a web browser and enter the console server IP address in the address field.
2. Log in as either admin with the password avocent or as root with the password linux.
Figure 3.1 shows a typical web manager screen for an administrator and descriptions follow in
