Installation
Once the download is complete, start the installation by executing the downloaded file. The installation wizard will open, click on Next to continue.
You can change the location where you want to install the Management Console. We recommend leaving it at the default option. Once you have specified the file location, click on Next.
Click on Install to proceed with the installation. You have to grant admin privileges when prompted. Once the installation is complete, click on Next.
When the installation finished successfully, make sure, the box Run UMH Management Console is selected and click on Finish.
The Management Console will automatically open, and you can proceed to create an account.
You might get a prompt, asking for firewall exceptions.
Please allow these exceptions to enable communication between the Management
Console and the edge devices. If your firewall is managed by a central IT
department, please contact them to allow the exceptions.
Creating an account
- The only authentication method which is currently available is Without Yubikey. To create a new account, enter your first name, last name, company name, and email address. You will also need to agree to the general terms of use and privacy policy.
- When you create an account, the Management Console will generate certificates which will be used to authenticate you when communicating with the Management Server or your instances. These certificates are also used to secure communication to prevent unauthorized access to your data and IT/OT infrastructure. The public part of these certificates is stored on our Management Server, which enables licensing.
