Logging into the web interface

The MCU web interface is used for administering the MCU device, managing conferences, users, and pre-defined endpoints. You can also perform many conference-related tasks using the web interface that you cannot otherwise do.

When connecting to the MCU web interface, you must log in so that the MCU can associate the session with your configured user and a set of access privileges. The MCU has a set of configured users, and each user has a username and password that are used for logging in.

1. Using a web browser, enter the host name or IP address of the MCU.
2. To log in, click Log in and enter your assigned Username and Password.
3. Click OK

The main menu appears, restricting the available options based on your access privileges. Administrators have full access; standard users can create new conferences and manage their profiles; guest users typically can access publicly available conferences.

The Login page of the MCU displays a welcome banner which administrators can configure to display text relevant to your organization. For more information, refer to Customizing the user interface.
