Using the CMC Directory Service 277
Logging into CMC Using Single Sign-On
NOTE: You cannot use the IP address to log into the Single Sign-On or Smart Card
login. Kerberos validates your credentials against the Fully Qualified Domain Name
(FQDN).
1 Log into the client system using your network account.
2 Access the CMC Web page using
https://< cmcname.domain-name >
For example, cmc-6G2WXF1.cmcad.lab
where cmc-6G2WXF1 is the cmc-name
cmcad.lab is the domain-name.
NOTE: If you changed the default HTTPS port number (port 80), access the
CMC Web page using <cmcname.domain-name>:<port number> , where
the cmcname is the CMC host name for CMC, domain-name is the domain
name, and
port number is the HTTPS port number.
The CMC Single Sign-On page is displayed.
3 Click Login .
CMC logs you in, using the Kerberos credentials that were cached by your
browser when you logged in using your valid Active Directory account. If
the login fails, the browser is redirected to the normal CMC login page.
NOTE: If you did not log in to the Active Directory domain and are using a
browser other then Internet Explorer, the login fails and the browser only
displays a blank page.
