Using a Web Browser to Log In to a CBH System

You can use mainstream browsers to log in to a CBH system for system management and resource O&M. Web browsers are recommended for system administrator admin or other administrators to manage the system and audit authorization.

Browser-based logins can be authenticated by password, SMS message, mobile OTP, USB key, or OTP token.

When logging in to a CBH system for the first time, all users need to bind a mobile number as prompted for password resetting.

Prerequisites

An EIP has been bound to the CBH instance.

Procedure

  1. Enter the IP address of the CBH system in the address box of your browser to access the login page.

    URL: https:// EIP of the CBH instance, for example, https://10.10.10.10.

    Use supported browsers to access CBH. In an incompatible browser, the login verification message may fail to be sent to you, or exceptions may occur after you log in. For recommended browsers, see Restrictions on Using CBH.
