After connecting, the logon dialog box appears.
- Enter the user ID and password for your WhatsUp Gold web account. You may not have to enter a password, depending on how your WhatsUp Gold administrator set up access to the web server.
The main page ("Top View") for the WhatsUp Gold web server appears. You can use the views and functions provided to your web user account.
If your attempt to connect to the web server is denied, make sure the following have been done:

- In Configure->Web Server->General, verify the Enable Web Server option is selected. (The web server is off by default on a new install.)
- Your computer's IP address is allowed access in the IP Security dialog box (Configure->Web Server->IP Security).
