DESCRIPTION
The smcwebserver utility manages the Sun Web Console server.
Sun Web Console is a browser-based interface that performs
systems management. System administrators can manage sys-
tems, devices and services from the console.When the console webserver is running, you can view the con-
sole by opening a browser and pointing to: https://host:6789 host is the machine where the console has been installed and the console server is running.The smcwebserver service is managed by the service manage-
ment facility (SMF) (see smf(5)), under the fault management resource identifier (FMRI): svc:/system/webconsole Administrative actions on this service, such as enabling, disabling, or requesting restart, can be performed usingsvcadm(1M). smcwebserver can only be started by the
superuser or someone in the Primary Administrator role. The configuration properties of this service can be modified with svccfg(1M).smcwebserver supports an SMF property that controls remote
access to the Sun Web Console server. The property,options/tcp_listen, has a default value of false, which
disallows remote access. The value true allows remoteaccess. See EXAMPLES.
