Starting Admin Console
You can start Admin Console on a Windows or Mac computer that has network access to the
master machine running FileMaker
Server. Admin Console is a web-based application hosted on
the master machine that you access with a browser.
Note To use Admin Console, your remote computer needs only a supported web browser; no
additional runtime environments or browser plug-ins are required. See
“System requirements for
Admin Console” on page 7.
To start Admin Console:
1. Open a web browser and enter:
https://[host]:16000
where [host] is the IP address or host name of the machine running FileMaker Server as a
master. This is the address you noted when you installed FileMaker
Server.
2. Before the Admin Console Start Page appears, your web browser may require you to respond
to a security message. This is normal behavior for the certificate that is included with
FileMaker
Server. Click the option to continue to go to the Start Page.
For information on how to prevent this message in the future, see “Requesting an SSL
certificate” on page 68.
Tip Bookmark the Start Page in your web browser. Come back to this page to access
documentation and other resources.
