Using WebFort Password

If the MA created your account with WebFort Password credentials, then ensure that you have the ID and activation code (one-time password), which will be used as your password when you log in to Administration Console for the first time. If you lose this activation code, then contact your administrator to regenerate it and send it to you.

To log in to the Administration Console as a GA by using WebFort Password credentials:

  1. Open a Web browser window.
  2. Enter the URL to access Administration Console. The default Administration Console URL is:

    http://<hostname>:<app_server_port>/arcotadmin/adminlogin.htm

    Replace hostname and port in the preceding URL respectively with the host name or the IP address of the system where you have deployed the Administration Console and the port at which the Console is listening.

    Note: It is recommended that you bookmark this URL to access the Administration Console. Any GA, OA, or UA can use this URL to log in to the Administration Console by using their WebFort Password credentials.

    The Administrator Login page appears.

  3. Enter the Organization Name that you want to log in to.

    Important! Do not enter the Display Name of the organization. Enter the unique ID of the organization (as defined by the Organization Name.) For example, if you want to log in to the Default Organization, whose Display Name is CA, then enter defaultorg, which is the (default) unique ID of this organization. Do not specify CA here.

  4. Click Log In.

    The Login page appears.

  5. Specify the user ID in User Name field, enter the corresponding activation code that you received in the Password field, and click Log In.
  6. If you are logging in for the first time, you aree prompted to change the password.
  7. Specify the New Password, Confirm Password, and then click Log In.

    You are redirected to the login page.

  8. Specify the Password again and click Log In.

    The landing page of the Administration Console appears.
