Access the Tungsten Fabric web UI¶

The Tungsten Fabric (TF) web UI allows for easy and fast TF resources configuration, monitoring, and debugging. You can access the TF web UI through either the Ingress service or the Kubernetes Service directly. TLS termination for the https protocol is performed through the Ingress service.

To access the TF web UI through Ingress:

1. Log in to a local machine running Ubuntu 18.04 where kubectl is installed.

2. Obtain and export kubeconfig of your managed cluster as described in Mirantis Container Cloud Operations Guide: Connect to a Container Cloud managed cluster.

3. Obtain the password of the Admin user:

   kubectl -n openstack exec -it $(kubectl -n openstack get pod -l application=keystone,component=client -o jsonpath='{.items[0].metadata.name}') -- env | grep PASS
   

4. Obtain the external IP address of the Ingress service:

   kubectl -n openstack get services ingress
   

   Example of system response:

   NAME      TYPE           CLUSTER-IP    EXTERNAL-IP    PORT(S)                                      AGE
   ingress   LoadBalancer   10.96.32.97   10.172.1.101   80:34234/TCP,443:34927/TCP,10246:33658/TCP   4h56m
   

   Note

   Do not use the EXTERNAL-IP value to directly access the TF web UI. Instead, use the FQDN from the list below.

5. Obtain the FQDN of tf-webui:

   Note

   The command below outputs all host names assigned to the TF web UI service. Use one of them.

   kubectl -n tf get ingress tf-webui -o custom-columns=HOSTS:.spec.rules[*].host
   

6. Configure DNS to access the TF web UI host as described in Configure DNS to access OpenStack.

7. Use your favorite browser to access the TF web UI at https://<FQDN-WEBUI>.
