Logging in to the Server

After provisioning the Endpoint Protector Server, you can configure the feature modules. To manage policies in preparation for agent deployment, access the web user interface set up during the server installation by following these steps:

Step 1 – Access the Web Interface: Enter the server's address in your web browser's address bar. This address may be a static IP or a namespace.

Step 2 – Log In: Enter your credentials. Use your assigned username and password. If you are logging in for the first time, use the default credentials:

• Username: root
• Password: epp2011

note

ensure to update your login credentials after the first log in to enhance security.

Upon successful log in, Endpoint Protector displays the Dashboard > General Dashboard window (see the following image). This window is intended to provide a high-level overview of endpoints under management as well as activity, licensing status, and modules licensed.

Your available modules are displayed in the left-side navigation pane. These can be selected to further manage module-specific policies. Ultimately, policies define the actions allowed / disallowed on the endpoint.

Before deploying any agents, review each module’s policy. If agents have already been deployed to systems, verify the configuration by checking active policy mappings. To clarify, after you build or edit a policy, you map it to a defined target or group of targets. Later sections for each module discuss this process.
