Accessing the web user interface

View information about your deployed manufacturing message flows by accessing the web user interface for IBM® Integration Bus Manufacturing Pack.

Before you begin

Ensure that your administrator completes the following steps:

Deploy and test an instance of the message flow that you want to monitor, and ensure that data is passing through the flow.
Configure and enable the web user interface server for the integration node to which your message flow is deployed, and record the port number that the server uses. By default the port is 4414. For more information, see Accessing the web user interface in the IBM Integration Bus documentation.
If administration security is enabled, complete the following steps:
1. Define a web user account for each user that requires access; see Managing web user accounts in the IBM Integration Bus documentation.
2. For each role, ensure that the following permissions are set:
  - Authorization to access the web user interface
  - Authorization to view the integration node properties
  - Authorization to list the contents of integration servers
  For more information, see Tasks and authorizations for administration security in the IBM Integration Bus documentation.

To access the web user interface, complete the following steps:

In a web browser, type the URL: protocol://serverAddress:port/manufacturing
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 that is specified for the HTTP or HTTPS connector object. This value is typically the IP address or host name of the computer on which the integration node is running; for example, 127.0.0.1
- port identifies the port for the HTTP or HTTPS connector object (by default the port is 4414).
For example, http://localhost:4414/manufacturing
On the welcome screen, select the view that you want to use:
- To view information about the manufacturing tags that are read by your message flows, in the Manufacturing Integration section, click the Open icon.
- To view the operational monitoring screen for an individual instance of an IBM Integration Bus Manufacturing Pack pattern, in the Operational Monitoring section, select the name of the pattern instance that you want to monitor. Then, click the Open icon.

You can view information about your message flows in a web browser.
