Connecting to the Admin UI

After your cluster has been created, use the fully qualified public DNS name or public IP address for this deployment in your Web browser to access the Admin UI on one of your Traffic Manager instances. For example, to access the Admin UI for the first instance in your cluster using the details shown in this guide, enter the following URL:

https://vtmtest1.eastus.cloudapp.net:50100

To view the full connection details for your cluster, see the Resource Group you created as part of the cluster deployment process.

To locate the connection details for your cluster

1.Login to the Azure Management portal (https://portal.azure.com), then click the Resource Groups link in the menu bar:

2.Click the name of your Resource Group to show the resources it includes.

3.Click the name of the Load Balancer resource. If the load balancer settings blade does not automatically appear, click All Settings.

4.Click Inbound NAT rules. This shows 3 rules for each instance: adminNatPool.N, restNatPool.N and sshNatPool.N (where N is the instance number).

5.Pick the rule for the desired type of access and note the associated port number in the “Service” column.

6.To access the Traffic Manager instance, use the public IP address shown in the “Destination” column with the selected port number. Alternatively, use the DNS name for the service (listed in the Public IP Address resource).

REST API access is initially disabled in your instances. To enable REST access, configure your Traffic Manager instances and enable REST through the Admin UI. For more details, see the Pulse Secure Virtual Traffic Manager: User’s Guide.

If your Traffic Manager instance has not yet been configured, first complete the Initial Configuration wizard. This wizard allows you to specify the initial time and security settings for your Traffic Manager. For more information, see Using the Initial Configuration Wizard.
