    Log in window
  2. Type the user name and password.
  3. If you are a user that is created in the Live! instance, select the Local Login check box. If you a user that is part of an Active Directory, then clear the Local Login check box.
  4. Click Log In.
    The default administrator user name and password are admin and password respectively.
    Notes: You might face the security certificate related issues while logging in from the browsers.
    • If the Live! server does not have a valid SSL certificate and uses a self-signed certificate (by default it does), you might see the browser security warning. Add a browser security exception to the web page and continue.
    • If the authentication fails because the Live! authentication server does not have a valid security certificate, you will see the Authentication server is down error when you login. To resolve the issue, see the Invalid security certificate error during authentication section in the Invalid security certificate errors topic.
    If the user that logs in is a Home administrator, the left menu pane is displayed with rooms, groups, and users options. For other users, the Home page is displayed with only the Rooms that they have access to. Depending on the privileges that you have, you can begin to work with Live!
