To connect and log into Logger:

Use the URL configured during Logger installation to connect to Logger through a supported browser.
- For the Logger appliance, use https://<hostname or IP address>
  The End User License Agreement is displayed. Review and accept the EULA.
- For Software Logger, use https://<hostname or IP address>:<configured_port>, where the hostname or IP address is the system on which the Logger software is installed, and configured_port is the port set up during the Logger installation, if applicable.
The Login screen opens.
Enter your Username and Password, and click SIGN IN. Use the following default credentials if you are connecting for the first time or have not yet changed the default credentials:

Username: admin

If login succeeds, the Summary page (Logger’s default home page) is displayed. For information on the Summary page see Summary
If login fails, the message Authentication Failed is displayed at the top of the login screen. Enter the correct username and password combination to try again.
