How to Access the Administration Dashboard
You can access the Administration Dashboard in one of two ways:
Open a Google Chrome or Firefox browser. Enter the URL of your Cloud Controller node's public IP
address. Login with the Admin account's username and password that you specified previously in the
Operational Dashboard on the Create Cloud > Attributes dialog.
Or, from within the Operational Dashboard, click Manage Clouds > More > Launch Dashboard for the
cloud you created.
Create a Keypair
Keypairs serve as a means of accessing the instance. One immediate advantage that this method has over
traditional password authentication is you can be authenticated by the server without ever having to send your
password over the network. Users need to create keypair(s) for their individual projects.
To create a keypair, do the following:
1.
In the Administration Dashboard, select the Project tab. The tab displays with options in the left panel.
2.
Select the Access and Security option from the left panel to display more options.
3.
Click Access and Security to display a page with three tabs: Keypairs, API Access and Authentication
Token. By default, Keypairs is the active tab.
4.
Click Create Keypair to display the Create Keypair dialog box.
5.
In the Keypair Name box, enter a Keypair name. For example, testonlykeypair, or any custom
name, with no spaces.
6.
Click Create Keypair. The keypair is downloaded to the browser session. If it does not download
automatically, a message is displayed to download the keypair from a link.
The key is downloaded in the form of a PEM file.
The key can only be downloaded once.
It is very important to store the key in a safe location.
