Virgo admin UI access via localhost only

You can access the Virgo admin UI by using a remote browser at https://<ip address>:8443/admin. This should not be used under normal circumstances, but can be useful for debugging purposes.

To change the credentials of this console, get root console access to the machine(s) running the HPE VAN SDN Controller and edit the following file:

/opt/sdn/virgo/configuration/org.eclipse.virgo.kernel.users.properties

This file includes the following two entries:

user.admin=sdn

role.admin=admin

where role.admin defines the user and user.admin defines the password. This file needs to be owned by user:sdn, group:sdn. Changes to this file require a restart of the controller to recognize the new credentials.

To disable access to the Virgo Admin UI, either remove the following file or move it to a safe location outside the pickup directory.
