2-2 Login into the IP Module and Logout
2-2.1 Login into the IP Module
Launch your web browser. Direct it to the address of your IP module, which you congured during the
installation process. The address used might be an IP address or a domain name, in the case where you
have given your IP module a symbolic name in the DNS. For instance, type the following in the URL eld of
your browser when establishing an unsecured connection:
http://<IP address of IP module>
When using a secure connection, type in:
https://<IP address of IP module>
This will lead you to the IP module login page as shown below.
The IP module has a built-in super user that has all permissions to administrate your IP module:
Warning
■ The user “super” is not allowed to login via the serial interface of the IP module
■ Please make sure to change the super user password immediately after you
have installed and accessed your IP module for the rst time. Unchanging of
the password for the super user is a severe security risk and might result in
unauthorized access to the IP module and to the host system including all possible
consequences!
■ Your web browser has to accept cookies, or else login is not possible.
Navigation
Having logged into the IP module successfully, the main page of the IP module appears. This page consists
of three parts; each of them contains specic information. The buttons on the upper side allow you to
navigate within the front end. Within the right frame, task-specic information is displayed that depends on
the section you have chosen before.
