The Web Console enables you to remotely view and manage the server environment. From a single, easy-to-use interface, you can:
http://ip_address:http_service
where:
Is the IP address of the machine on which the server is running.
Is the value for HTTP Service entered during the server configuration procedure.
The Web Console home page opens, as shown in the following image. The sidebar provides access to the different features of the Web Console.
By default, icon text does not show on the menu bar or side bar.
The names of the resources on the sidebar can be displayed by clicking the sidebar menu above the menu bar, as shown in the following image.
The icon text can be displayed on the menu bar by clicking the Ribbon Options icon on the top right of the Web Console menu bar.
The Web Console browser cache files for each server build will be stored separately. This means that multiple Web Console sessions using the same browser will not impact each other. Therefore, you will not have to clear the browser cache to switch between multiple servers using the same machine and browser.
To implement separate cache files, each Web Console URL will automatically be invoked using a unique identifier. For example, if you enter the following URL:
http://mypcname:8021/wc/wcstart.html
The URL will automatically be issued with a unique identifier. For example:
http://mypcname:8021/A4643588A8A7C435/wc/wcstart.html
All other URLs generated by web connections to the server will use the same identification string.

The console offers online help with two kinds of links to appropriate sections of this documentation:
Web Console functionality is available through a ribbon at the top of the page. The ribbon is the default, and it can be toggled on and off using the Minimize the Ribbon option on the menu at the top right of the page. By default, the icon text does not display, but you can turn it on using the ribbon menu at the top right of the page.
The ribbon available from the Applications page is shown in the following image.
The interface includes the following menus at the top right of the page, as shown in the following image:
On the right area of the Web Console menu bar, a menu under the user ID of the connected user is displayed, if the server is running with security on. If it is not running with security on, a User menu appears. In addition, there is a ribbon menu to configure the view of the ribbon and a help menu to open the help content.
The ribbon provides the same options that are available from the right-click menus of the top nodes in the navigation pane. If the ribbon is hidden, right-clicking the Application Directories/Files node on the navigation pane provides the same options.
Pages and panes in the Web Console can be rearranged, resized, or closed using the Hover menu. The Hover menu appears when you point your cursor to the top right corner of a pane, shown in the following image:
This menu contains the following options, some of which depend on the page that is open:
Drag and drop. Allows you to move the page within the Web Console interface. A shaded area indicates where the page will be placed.
You can also access this option by pointing to the top of the right pane. The cursor becomes a four-headed arrow, indicating that you can move the page.
