## To Log in to the Admin Console

##### Steps

1. Click `http://localhost:4848/asadmin`.

   - The localhost variable is the name of the system that the browser is currently running on. If Application Server software is running on another system, substitute the name of that system for localhost.

   - `4848` is the Admin Console’s default port number. If you changed the port number during the installation, use that number instead.

   Tip –

   Windows users can also use the Start menu option: Programs ⇒ Sun Microsystems ⇒ Application Server PE ⇒Admin Console.

2. When the log in window appears, enter the admin user name and password.

3. Click Log In.

   When the Admin Console appears, it looks like this:

   Use the options at the top of the information panel to configure a variety of operational settings for Application Server software.

   To see the server’s log file, click “Search Log Files” under the Common Tasks heading in the right-hand pane. When the Log Viewer window appears, you can see status messages from the server and output from your J2EE application.
