1.2 Accessing the Identity Manager user interface
When you’re ready to start using the Identity Manager user interface, all you need on your computer is a Web browser. Identity Manager supports the most popular browser versions; see your system administrator for a list of supported browsers or for help installing one.
Because it works in a browser, the Identity Manager user interface is as easy to access as any Web page.
NOTE:To use the Identity Manager user interface, make sure your Web browser has JavaScript enabled.
To access the Identity Manager user interface:
- In your Web browser, go to the address
(URL) for the Identity Manager user interface (as supplied
by your system administrator). For example:
http://myappserver:8080/IDM
By default, this takes you to the guest welcome page of the user interface:
From here, you can log in to the user interface to get access to its features.
1.2.1 Your user interface may look different
If you see a different first page when accessing the Identity Manager user interface, it’s typically because the application has been customized for your organization. As you work, you may find that other features of the user interface have been customized too.
In this case, you should check with your system administrator to learn how your customized user interface differs from the default configuration described in this book.
