QuantaStor Manager Overview
Configuring a secure connection to the QuantaStor Manager
The Web Administration will support a secure connection when using https:// to connect. By default both types of connections are supported. To permanently disable http:// support the /etc/init.d/iptables file can be edited to stop redirection of TCP port 80 to port 8080.
To edit the iptables file, connect to the QuantaStor server CLI via an ssh connection or the local console. Using your favorite Linux text editor either remove the following line or insert a hash tag (#) at the front of the line to indicate that the rule should be ignored.
- /sbin/iptables -t nat -I PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 8080
Login Screen
The default admin password for QuantaStor is simply 'password'. If you do not enter a password it will assume the default and will attempt to login to the system with 'password'. The administrator user name is simply 'admin'. It is recommended that you change the administrator password the first time you login to the system. If you are having trouble logging in, try hitting the reload button on your browser as this will re-download the web based management interface. Sometimes, especially after an upgrade you'll need to be sure to do that.
