WSO2 WSAS Management Console is your one stop shop to administer the WSO2 Web Services Application Server. You can administer/configure your modules/services as well as monitor the system through this interface.

The functionality of the Management Console is described in detail below.

Welcome Page

Once WSO2 WSAS has been successfully installed (see Installation Guide for installation details), start the WSO2 WSAS server. Then, launch a Web browser instance and point it to the URL https://localhost:9443/carbon/ if you are using the default settings. This will take you to the welcome page of the WSO2 WSAS Console

Note:

WSO2 WSAS has two transport listeners: HTTP and HTTPS. By default, the HTTP listener opens on port 9763, while the HTTPS listener opens on port 9443. The administrator functionality is exposed only via the HTTPS port.

Signing In

Signing in will be available in the upper right hand corner. When the user clicks the "sign in" link, it will automatically redirect the request to secure protocol https, if user has already in http protocol. Once the correct credentials are provided, the user will be logged in to the WSAS management console.
