Changing or Resetting Access Restrictions for the Multi-Tier Request Broker's Admin Assistant
Changing User Access
- Load the Admin Assistant in a browser.
The default URL is http://broker-hostname-or-ip-address:8000/.
- Drill down to Server Components Administration -> Admin Assistant Settings -> Configure the List of Users Allowed to use the Admin Assistant.
When prompted to log in, use the defaults or whatever you've set previously.
- Click Edit, Remove, or Add as appropriate, until the list reflects your intention.
- Optionally, drill down to Server Components Administration -> Admin Assistant Settings -> Configure the Admin Assistant's Remote Access Filters.
Here you can restrict the IP addresses which may use Web browsers to access the Admin Assistant.
- When you've finished, stop and restart the Request Broker, which will automatically restart the Admin Assistant.
- Test your new settings.
Resetting to Defaults
The default username and password of the Multi-Tier Admin Assistant are both admin.
If you cannot log in with these values, you may have changed them during installation.
You can reset these through the following steps:
- Access the machine which hosts the Multi-Tier server components.
- Open a CMD/DOS or Unix terminal session.
- Navigate to the /bin/w3config sub-directory of the server-side installation.
- Run setup or setup.exe.
This program will reset both username and password to the defualt -- i.e., "admin".
