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:

Note: The WhatsUp Gold web interface Administrator account password can be changed in the installation wizard during the WhatsUp Gold installation process.

You have the option to enable the web server during installation. You also can enable/disable the web server in the WhatsUp Gold console (Configure > Program Options > Web Server), then Select Enable web server on port.

Note: Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) is also as the web server for WhatsUp Gold. For more information, see the Configuring the web server section of the Installing and Configuring WhatsUp Gold guide.
