Introduction

Access to the legacy NetFlow Tracker portal on TVF can be secured in three ways:

  1. No password protection
  2. Protect configuration only
  3. Protect all access

Starting with version 11.0, the second option "Protect configuration only" is not working as you may expect; selecting it will result in the Settings tab missing from the Main Menu.

 

Solution

You may still want to protect the configuration only. After selecting the second option, use this work around to gain access to the user interface:

To view data (Network Overview, Devices, Filter Editor, ...)

http://<ip_address_TVF>
or
https://<ip_address_TVF>

 

To view settings (Listening Ports, Device Settings, Performance Counters, ...)

http://<ip_address_TVF>/admin/index.jsp
or
https://<ip_address_TVF>/admin/index.jsp
