Components

This document primarily focuses on Configuration Management Database (CMDB).

For more information about the functions and usage of other components, see their user guides.

Quick start

H3C U-Center 5.0 provides users with an intuitive, interactive Web interface that can be accessed through a Web browser. On the U-Center 5.0 management page, you can configure settings for the whole network.

Access U-Center 5.0

U-Center 5.0 is developed based on the browser/server model. Users can access U-Center 5.0 directly by entering the URL of the U-Center server in the Web browser.

Table 1 lists the Web browsers supported by U-Center 5.0.

Table 1 Recommended Web browsers

Browser	Version
Chrome	Chrome 96 or later
Firefox	Firefox 97 or later

U-Center 5.0 can be accessed through both HTTP and HTTPS, by using URLs in the following formats:

· http://<IP address>:<port>

· https://<IP address>:<port>

The IP address is the virtual IP address configured in Matrix for northbound services. By default, the port number is 30000, which is configurable during installation.

NOTE:

· You can use the predefined administrator account (with username admin) for initial access to U-Center 5.0. After login, change the default account password as soon as possible for security purposes.

· To view the northbound service virtual IP address, navigate to the DEPLOY > Clusters > Cluster Parameters page in Matrix.

To implement operation and data permission control for a user, assign permissions to a role, specify the role for a group, and then add the user to the group.

U-Center 5.0 provides various groups for you to add users and assign permissions to them for implementing secure Ops.

This section briefly describes how to modify the password of a user and add a user.

Modify the default password of the admin account

U-Center 5.0 provides a predefined account with login name admin. You can use the account for initial access to U-Center 5.0.

Upon logging in to the system for the first time, you must first change the password for the admin account to ensure system security. Use any of the following methods to change the user password:

· Follow the guide that opens upon login to change the password:

a. After you log in, the system will open the New Password dialog box.

b. Click Change Password Now.

c. In the New Password window that opens, change the password.

d. Click OK.

· Change the password of the current account:

a. ‍Hover over the admin link in the upper right corner of the page.

b. Select New Password from the drop-down menu.

c. In the New Password window that opens, change the password.

d. Click OK.

· Manage a user:

a. ‍On the top navigation bar, click System.

b. By default, the User Management page opens.

c. Click the icon in the Actions column for the admin user.

d. Turn on the Change Password option , and then enter the new password in the Login Password and Confirm Password fields.

e. Click OK.

Add a user

To manage a medium- or large-sized network, you can add multiple users with associated permissions for secure Ops.

To add a user:

1. On the top navigation bar, click System.

¡ Organization: Organization to which the user belongs. Available options include the organization managed by the current logged-in user and its sub-organizations.

¡ Authentication Method: Select an authentication method. The system provides the following authentication methods:

- Simple Password Authentication: Requires specifying a password when adding the user. The user uses local password authentication for login.

- LDAP/RADIUS/TACACS Authentication: Requires the user to perform authentication with the associated authentication server for login.

- Third-Party Authentication: Requires the user to log in through third-party authentication and custom modules. To use this authentication method, you must navigate to the System > System Settings > Authentication Settings page to configure third-party authentication settings.

- UKEY Authentication: The user can securely perform identity authentication and create a digital signature online. To enable UKEY authentication, access the System > System Settings > Authentication Settings page.

¡ Login Password: If the simple password authentication method is selected, the login password field will appear. Enter the login password of the user in this field.

¡ Confirm Password: If the simple password authentication method is selected, the confirm password field will appear. Confirm the login password of the user in this field.

¡ Tel: Enter the phone number of the user. This field is optional.

¡ Email: Enter the email account of the user. This field is optional.

¡ Description: Enter a description of the user. This field is optional. The description information facilitates maintenance.

¡ Password Validity Period: Specify whether to enable validity period settings for the password. This field is displayed if you select Simple Password Authentication as the authentication method.

- Password Validity Period (Days): The user will be unable to use the password for login after password expiration.

- Password Expiration Early Warning Period (Days): When the remaining validity period of the password reaches the threshold, the system sends an alarm to notify the user to change the password each time the user logs in. The system automatically clears the alarm when the password is changed.

¡ User Account Validity Period: Specify whether to enable validity period settings for the user.

- User Account Expiration Time: After the user expires, the user will be disabled and cannot log in to the system.

- User Account Expiration Early Warning Period (Days): When the remaining validity period for a user reaches the threshold, the system sends an alarm to notify the user of changing the account validity period each time the user logs in. The system automatically clears the alarm when the user account validity period is changed.

¡ Max Concurrent Logins: Set the maximum number of concurrent users that use this user account. A value of 0 indicates no limit on the maximum number of concurrent online users. The value is an integer in the range of 0 to 999.

6. Configure the user access control list:

¡ Default access type: Access operation executed by default when the user does not match any rule. Options include Permit and Deny.

¡ Add a user access control rule:

- Start/End IP Address: Define an IP address range by the start IP address and end IP address. If the IP address of a user belongs to the IP address range, the system determines that the user matches the rule.

Global ops topologies

The global ops topologies feature enables topology display and orchestration of network-wide resources, offering unified management for resource views. Users can view and edit CI-related information through the graphical interface, including CI data and alarm data. The component registers capabilities such as toolbar buttons, right-click menus, node link tips, and node link styles through the extended interface, meeting personalized needs across various scenarios and delivering a clear, visually appealing viewing and editing experience for users.

The main functions of the global ops topologies are as follows:

· Unified display: Components import resources to achieve centralized presentation of all controllers on the global ops topologies, displaying alarm status, device online/offline states, link tips, and other information.

· Topology framework customization: Supports extended functions such as importing resources, toolbar, node and link tips, and right-click menu.

¡ Each component registers with the toolbar to implement its specific topology functions, such as displaying terminals or presenting overlay links.

¡ Components can expand node and link tip information as needed for personalized display.

¡ Components register with the CMDB and node types in the global ops topologies to expand the range of device types within it.

· View hierarchy and group editing function: Group and sort by attributes such as view type, function, or priority.

· Visual editing for view content: Graphically add nodes and create physical links or logical connections within the view.

· CI and monitoring information one-stop solution: Enables adding and viewing CIs and monitoring information on the same page without switchover between different components.
