Accessing the web user interface

You can access broker resources by logging on to the web user interface.

Before you start:

Read the following topics:
Ensure that a web user interface server has been configured, as described in Configuring the web user interface server.

All new brokers that are created in WebSphere® Message Broker Version 8.0.0.1 or later have the web user interface assigned to port 4414, which is enabled by default. As a result, the web user interface is enabled automatically when a new broker is created.

You can disable and enable the web user interface by using the mqsichangeproperties command to change the enabled property of the webadmin component to false or true. For more information, see Enabling and disabling the web user interface.

When you have configured a web user interface server to be used by IBM Integration Bus, open the web user interface in a web browser:

Use the following URL:
protocol://serverAddress:port/

where:
- protocol has the value http or https, depending on whether you are using an HTTP or an HTTPS connector object
- serverAddress identifies the web user interface server address specified for the HTTP or HTTPS connector object; for example 127.0.0.1
- port identifies the port that you specified for the HTTP or HTTPS connector object in the preceding steps (by default the port is 4414)
For example:
```
http://127.0.0.1:4415
```
Enter your user ID and password and then click Log in to log on to the system. Users have permissions granted to them according to their role, so administrators and web users can have different access to broker resources based on their role. The web interface is tailored to your role, so you see only the options that are available to you based on the permissions that have been assigned to your role.
For more information about roles, see Role-based security. For information about creating user accounts, see Managing web user accounts.

If administration security is not enabled, you can access the web user interface as the default user without logging on, but you still have access to all data and broker resources.
A window opens, in which you can view and administer your broker resources. The Navigator view is displayed on the left side of the window (unless it has been hidden), and the content that is displayed on the right side of the window varies according to the resource that has been selected in the Navigator view.
