You can launch the Dashboard from the Start menu of your computer where Secure Configuration Manager and the Dashboard are installed. For quick and easy access, add the Dashboard URL to the Favorites tab of your browser. For more information about supported browsers, see Section 2.1.2, Supported Web Browsers.
To log on to the Dashboard:
Go to Start menu and select Secure Configuration Manager Dashboard.
Specify your Secure Configuration Manager user name and password.
Click Log In.
All the Secure Configuration Manager Console users can log in to the Dashboard. However, the data users can view depends on the privileges their role has been assigned by the Secure Configuration Manager administrator. For more information about Secure Configuration Manager users and roles, see the relevant sections in Setting Security on the Secure Configuration Manager Console
in the NetIQ Secure Configuration Manager User Guide.
If your role has been configured with a session limit value, it will be applicable for your Dashboard session too. For more information about session limit, see “Assigning Session Limit to Roles” in the NetIQ Secure Configuration Manager User Guide.
If your user account is deleted by the Secure Configuration Manager administrator while you are using the Dashboard, your session will be terminated whenever the session is revalidated. For more information about session revalidation interval, see the Validate User in Every field in Section 3.2.3, Working with General Dashboard Settings.
