37.2 Using the POA Web Console

The POA Web console enables you to monitor and control the POA from any location where you
have access to a Web browser and the Internet. This provides substantially more flexible access than
the POA server console, which can only be accessed from the server where the POA is running.

37.2.1 Setting Up the POA Web Console

The default HTTP port for the POA Web console is established during POA installation. You can
change the port number and increase security after installation in ConsoleOne.
1 In ConsoleOne, browse to and right-click the POA object, then click Properties.
2 Click GroupWise > Network Address to display the Network Address page.
If you configured the POA for TCP/IP links during installation, the TCP/IP Address field
should display the POA server's network address. If it does not, follow the instructions in
"Using TCP/IP Links between the Post Office and the Domain" on page
configured for TCP/IP in order to provide the POA Web console.
3 Make a note of the IP address or DNS hostname in the TCP/IP Address field. You need this
information to access the POA Web console.
The HTTP Port field displays the default port number of 7181.
4 If the default HTTP port number is already in use on the POA server, specify a unique port
number.
