Post installation - Wickr Enterprise

This guide provides documentation for Wickr Enterprise. If you're using AWS Wickr, see AWS Wickr Administration Guide or AWS Wickr User Guide.

Post installation

There are two web consoles available for managing your Wickr Enterprise installation: the KOTS Admin Console and the Wickr Admin Console.

Note

Make any changes needed to reflect your organization's backup and logging policies (Amazon S3 settings, Elastic Load Balancing access logs, Amazon Virtual Private Cloud flow logs).

KOTS Admin Console

This interface is used for managing the deployed version of Wickr Enterprise. You can see the status of the installation, modify configurations, or perform upgrades. The KOTS Admin Console is accessible only through a Kubernetes port forward, which can be opened using the following command:

kubectl kots --namespace wickr admin-console
Note

You must first set up your bastion connection as described in the port forward to the bastion section. For more information on port forward to the bastion, see Proxying connections through the bastion.

When the port forward is successfully configured, the previous command will output the following:

• Press Ctrl+C to exit • Go to http://localhost:8800 to access the Admin Console

Use the provided URL to access the KOTS Admin Console. The password to log in is the one you chose when running kubectl kots install during the installation. If you need to reset your password, see Resetting the KOTS Admin Console Password.

Wickr Admin Console

This interface is used for configuring your Wickr Enterprise installation to set up networks, users, and federation. It's accessible over HTTPS at the DNS name that you configured to point to your Load Balancer. If DNS was configured automatically with a public hosted zone, the domain name is the value of the wickr/domainName context value.

The default username is admin, with the password Password123. You will be required to change this password on first log in.
