To log into the *Controller*, you require a Tenant Admin login. All Tenant Admin accounts are set up by the *Ivanti* DevOps team. Once your Tenant Admin account has been created, you will receive an email which describes how to log into the *Controller* as a Tenant Admin. You can then proceed to login to the *Controller*, see [Logging into the Controller as a Tenant Admin](docId\:sBwrbmzDD_K2cDmVKaX5O). ## Logging into the *Controller* as a Tenant Admin Before you can log in as a Tenant Admin, you will receive an email from the *Ivanti* DevOps team. This email contains: - Your Tenant Admin user name. - Your password. - The *vTM* domain. That is, the FQDN of the *Controller*. - A hyperlink to start the login process. To log into your Tenant Admin account: 1. Click the hyperlink in your email. The administrator login page appears. ::Image[]{src="https://api.archbee.com/api/optimize/wxZG1KsS4xNkVZYoiu_o9/2YYmBoRcXqdoWubp0jsb-_loginadmin.png" alt="Tenant Admin Login Page" position="flex-start" size="80" width="1092" height="727" initialPath="img/login_admin.png" githubPath="img/login_admin.png" showCaption="false"} :::Paragraph{indent="1"} Tenant Admin Login Page ::: Log in using your supplied Tenant Admin credentials. 3. If *vTM* requests it, specify a new password for your account. :::Paragraph{indent="1"} Once this procedure is complete, you access the *vTM* graphical interface as an admin user. The graphical user elements that appear depend on your configured state. ::: :::hint{type="info"} To reset a forgotten password, click **FORGOT PASSWORD**. This link presents a credentials form through which you enter a Username and Email address. If the entered credentials match a registered administrator account, *vTM* emails a password reset link to the entered address allowing the recipient to create a new password. ::: The Gateways page lists the vTM Gateways that are configured on nSA. For details about adding new gateways, see [Registering Virtual Traffic Manager Gateway](docId\:WXG2ke5wHwyLf-Fa37qsN). ### Changing the UI Theme nSA offers two themes for your UI display: To change the current theme, which remains in place through subsequent logins, use the **Settings** menu located on the top-right-corner of the page: ::Image[]{src="https://api.archbee.com/api/optimize/wxZG1KsS4xNkVZYoiu_o9/lb6J6gzfc571vCZXrvtM5_colorscheme.png" alt="img/ColorScheme.png" position="flex-start" size="53" width="529" height="363" initialPath="img/colorscheme.png" githubPath="img/colorscheme.png" showCaption="false"} Through the **Color Scheme** panel (indicated), click **Light** or **Dark** to switch between themes. ### Setting the Timezone To configure the default timezone for this admin login account, use the **Settings** menu located on the top-right-corner of the page: ::Image[]{src="https://api.archbee.com/api/optimize/wxZG1KsS4xNkVZYoiu_o9/vPJVlWovKu1YkAKyizSWW_timezone.png" alt="img/Timezone.png" position="flex-start" size="40" width="404" height="552" initialPath="img/timezone.png" githubPath="img/timezone.png" showCaption="false"} Choose a timezone in the provided drop-down selector, then click **Apply**. The configured timezone affects the display of data on all **Insights** pages, and each admin login account within a tenant deployment has their own specific timezone configuration. Changes to the timezone persist across login sessions, and the default setting is *UTC (Coordinated Universal Time)*. :::hint{type="info"} Changing the timezone can affect the data displayed in each chart or graph. For example, a recently-observed non-compliance event involving a client device in the GMT timezone that appears in the *Last Hour* view (when using GMT (UTC + 00:00) as your configured timezone) might then only appear in the *Last X Hours* view when you switch your timezone to IST (UTC+05:30). ::: ### Configuring Session Timeouts To configure timeout values for admin and user sessions, use the **Settings** menu located on the top-right-corner of the page: ::Image[]{src="https://api.archbee.com/api/optimize/wxZG1KsS4xNkVZYoiu_o9/IW3LFZPlqvCg82zGk3hm-_sessiontimeouts.png" alt="img/SessionTimeouts.png" position="flex-start" size="59" width="594" height="630" initialPath="img/sessiontimeouts.png" githubPath="img/sessiontimeouts.png" showCaption="false"} Through the **Session Settings** panel (indicated), you can set the following timeout values: - **Admin Idle Timeout**: the time, in minutes, after which the admin login session to the Tenant Admin Portal times out due to inactivity. (default: 10) - **Admin Max Session Length**: the time, in minutes, after which the admin login session to the Tenant Admin Portal ends and must be re-authenticated. (default: 60) - **User Idle Timeout**: the time, in minutes, after which the user login session to nSA times out due to inactivity. (default: 60) - **User Max Session Length**: the time, in minutes, after which the login session to nSA ends and must be re-authenticated. (default: 720) To apply your changes, click **APPLY**. :::hint{type="info"} To use these settings, your configured Gateways must all meet minimum version requirements for session control. nSA disables the panel and displays a warning message if this is not the case. ::: ## Logging out of the *Controller* To log out of the *vTM* Tenant Admin Portal and end the current session, click the *Profile* icon and select **Logout**. ::Image[]{src="https://api.archbee.com/api/optimize/wxZG1KsS4xNkVZYoiu_o9/RGNzDm8vZijFy8gSpp3SA_logoutadmin.png" position="flex-start" size="24" width="240" height="136" initialPath="img/logout_admin.png" githubPath="img/logout_admin.png" showCaption="false"}
