Opening the FileMaker Server Admin Console

How to Open the FileMaker Admin Console

1. Open a web browser

2. Enter  http://[host]:16001/admin-console  in the address bar.
   
   Where [host] is the IP address or domain name of the master machine in your FileMaker Server deployment. Port 16001 is only available on the local host machine and not from a remote machine.

3. Click Start Admin Console.

4. In the Admin Console Login page, enter the user name and password for the Admin Console account.  
   
   The Admin Console starts and displays the Status pane.

Additional Notes:

• After you have successfully started the Admin Console from your browser, save the address as a favorite to easily open Admin Console.

• If you need to restart the operating system, stop FileMaker Server first, then restart it after the operating system was restarted.
