Configuring Admin Control Center to Use Your Custom Template

After you have created your template, you want to be sure that Admin Control Center loads your customized settings whenever it launches.

By default, when you enter http://[servername]:1947 in your browser, the internal factory default templates are used. The URL is redirected to http://[servername]:1947/_int_/index.html. The characters _int_ denote the internal directory. If you replace _int_ with sample, the templates from the sample directory are used.

To direct Admin Control Center to use your Custom Template:

1.Open Admin Control Center in your browser. By default, the application opens at this URL:
http://[servername]:1947/_int_/index.html

2.In the URL, replace _int_ with the name of the custom template you wish to use.

3.Create a shortcut to the address of Admin Control Center with your template.

Using this process, multiple browser windows can use multiple templates simultaneously.

URL Redirections Using HTTP 302

Following is a list of sample URLs to which the browser is redirected when a specific URL is entered.

Note that you do not require this information for translation or simple layout changes in your template. However, it is required if you are changing the logic of Admin Control Center (for example, by adding or removing pages, or merging Admin Control Center functions into another application).

URL Entered URL Displayed
[server name]:1947
Provides a shortcut to the main Admin Control Center page
[server name]:1947/_int_/index.html
[server name]:1947/corporate.html
Automatically switches to the internal template. (_ini_) is set when no template has been specified
[server name]:1947/_int_/corporate.html
[server name]:1947/csv/devices.txt
Does not change because the template (csv) and file name are specified
[server name]:1947/csv/devices.txt
[server name]:1947/sample
Automatically redirects to the index.html file when no file name has been specified
[server name]:1947/sample/index.html

NOTE   It is sufficient to type only the URL of Sentinel Admin Control Center— it automatically redirects to the index page.
