Django Admin console
IMPORTANT: For security reasons, Django Admin console is only accessible when using 127.0.0.1 as hostname.
To access the Django console from a remote system, you must create an SSH tunnel in order to access the Apache Web server via 127.0.0.1 in your local machine. Follow these instructions to create an SSH tunnel and remotely connect safely.
While the tunnel is active, you should be able to access the Django Admin console through the secure SSH tunnel you created, by browsing to http://127.0.0.1:LOCAL_PORT/admin.
Enter the following credentials to log in to the Django console:
- Username: user
- Password: The same as the application password. Find out how to obtain application credentials.
