To use Asset Information Manager, use a Web browser to access the login window and log in to Asset Information Manager.
- Notes
- To ensure a secure environment, the first time you log in, make sure that you change the asset manager's default password (user ID: admin). We also recommend that you change the password periodically.
- Even when Active Directory is used for authentication, the user IDs used for logging in must be managed as Asset Information Manager user information. Only passwords can be consolidated when Active Directory is used for login authentication. To log in under a user ID that is not registered in Active Directory, that user ID must be authenticated as user information (user ID and password) managed in Asset Information Manager.
For example, user IDs and passwords that are registered only in Asset Information Manager are managed in the asset management database, which is the case for the asset manager (user ID: admin).
To log in to Asset Information Manager:
- Open a Web browser and access the login window.
To access the login window, enter its URL into a Web browser. The URL of the login window is http://host-name/jp1asset/login.htm.
