CS provides a GUI-based administration tool called the CS console that is accessible from
Red Hat Console. Red Hat Console is a GUI-based front-end for Red Hat Administration
Server and allows you to manager servers as well as users.
This section provides an overview of Red Hat Administration Server and the CS console.
Red Hat Administration Server
Red Hat Administration Server is a web-based (HTTP) server installed along with CS that
enables you to configure CS through Red Hat Console. You access Administration Server
by entering its URL in the Red Hat Console login screen and providing the user ID and
password of the administrative user.
Administration Server must be running before you can access Red Hat Console.
