Accessing the web interface

You can connect to the WhatsUp Gold web interface from any supported browser by entering its web address. This web address consists of the hostname of the WhatsUp Gold host and the web server port number. The default port number is 80.

For example, if your WhatsUp Gold host is named monitor1.ipswitch.com, then the web address will be: http://monitor1.ipswitch.com:80.

Note: When you use the default port number (80), you do not have to include the port number in the address.

There are two default users on the Web server:

Administrator

Username: admin

Password: admin

Guest

Username: guest

Password: <password box left blank>

By default, the web server is disabled in the console. You have the option to enable the web server during installation, or on the console by going to Configure > Program Options > Web Server. Select Enable web server on port.
