3.0.6 or higher (on all operating systems) to access the Management Card through its

The Management Card cannot work with a proxy server. Before you can use a Web browser to access the
Web interface of the Management Card, you must do one of the following:
• Configure the Web browser to disable the use of a proxy server for the Management Card
• Configure the proxy server so that it does not proxy the specific IP address of the Management
Card
How to Log On
Overview
You can use the DNS name or System IP address of the Management Card for the URL address of the
Web interface. Use your case-sensitive user name and password to log on. The default user name differs
by account type:
• apc for Administrator
• device for a Device User
• readonly for a Read-Only User
The default password is apc for all three account types.
You can set your user interface language as you log on by choosing a language from the Language drop-
down box.
Note: If you are using HTTPS (SSL/TLS) as your access protocol, your logon credentials are
compared with information in a server certificate. If the certificate was created with the APC
Security Wizard, and an IP address was specified as the common name in the certificate, you
must use an IP address to log on to the Management Card. If a DNS name was specified as
the common name on the certificate, you must use a DNS name to log on.
