  1. Ensure that iSM is running.

    On Windows, you can start iSM by clicking Start, selecting Programs, iWay 7.0 Service Manager, and then Start Service Manager for the configuration you are currently using.

    For more information on starting and stopping iSM, see the iWay Service Manager User Guide.

  2. Open a browser window and point to the following URL:
    http://host:port/ism

    where:

    host

    Is the host machine on which iSM is installed.

    port

    Is the port on which iSM is listening. The default port is 9999.

    On Windows, alternatively, you can click Start, select Programs, iWay 7.0 Service Manager, and then click Console.

    A logon dialog box opens.

  3. Type a user name and password for the configuration you are using, and click OK.
