If this type of connection is impractical, put the laptop on the same network segment as the internal interface (to get as close to the appliance as possible). If you still can't access AMC, make sure your URL includes the |
| Can’t log in to AMC on the internal network | If your browser cannot log in to AMC on the internal network, ensure that traffic
from the client to the IP address of the appliance’s internal interface actually
arrives at the internal interface. Using the network traffic utility in AMC, which is
based on tcpdump, you can capture traffic on the internal interface (eth0).
Any client attempts to reach AMC should show traffic TCP SYN packets from the
client’s IP address directed to port 8443. See Capturing Network Traffic for more
information. |
| Can’t log in | If AMC login fails with the error Invalid Login Credentials, verify the
spelling of your username and password. Passwords are case-sensitive; ensure
that Caps Lock and Num Lock are not enabled. |
| CPU utilization is spiking | If you are using nested group lookup on your LDAP or AD authentication server, make sure that you are also caching the lookup results: searching the entire directory tree takes time and increases the CPU usage on both the appliance and your authentication server. |
