Log in to SmartConsole from Smart-1 Cloud

Administrators can manage Smart-1 Cloud with one of these options:

  • Web SmartConsole (browser-based)

  • Streamed SmartConsole

  • Desktop SmartConsole (Windows installation)

  • Portable SmartConsole (no administrator rights required for Windows installation)

Important - Because of port tunneling limitations, you can establish only one connection to a Smart-1 Cloud tenant from a desktop SmartConsole on the same computer.

As an alternative, use Web SmartConsole or Streamed SmartConsole.

Note - From R82.10, Smart-1 Cloud enforces an automatic idle timeout to enhance security. If SmartConsole is inactive for 10 minutes, the user is logged out automatically.

On the Smart-1 Cloud page, select Settings > API & SmartConsole > Open Web SmartConsole.

On the Smart-1 Cloud page, select Settings > API & SmartConsole > Open Streamed SmartConsole.

The Streamed SmartConsole automatically opens.

Go to Settings > API & SmartConsole > Instructions for using Installed SmartConsole.

Note - SmartConsole is available as a Windows installer or as a Portable (ZIP) version.
