Administration Console Interface

This section provides information related to PPM Server Configuration by Administration Console (or Admin Console).

Access to Administration Console

To disable access to the Administration Console interface (not including project customization) from the outside, the following URIs can be blocked at the front end (either the load balancer or the reverse proxy):

```

```

These URIs are subject to change and must be reviewed for each new major version of PPM.

Access to project customization can be restricted at the permissions level.

To secure the Administration Console interface:

Change the administrator password during the initial setup.
Use a strong password for the administrator.
