Accessing the console

From your computer (locally): Browse http://127.0.0.1:<console port>, http://[::1]:<console port>, or http://localhost:<console port>.
From any computer or device connected to the network: Browse http://<your host name>:<console port>. Note that by default, only the local access to the console is allowed so that only the computer where Abyss Web Server is installed (which IPv4 address is 127.0.0.1 and IPv6 address is ::1) and computers connected to your LAN (which IPv4 addresses range from 192.168.0.1 to 192.168.255.254, from 172.16.0.1 to 172.31.255.254, and from 10.0.0.1 to 10.255.255.254) are able to browse the console. Remote access from other computers is disabled by default. To enable it, please read "Configuring the console IP Address Control".

<console port> is printed on the web server's window . It is 9999 by default.
