The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality. Exceptions may be present in the documentation due to language that is hardcoded in the user interfaces of the product software, language used based on RFP documentation, or language that is used by a referenced third-party product.

You can use a variety of browsers to access the Self Service interface. For a list of browsers, refer to Cisco Unified Communications Domain Manager, Release 10.6(1) Planning and Install Guide.
Note | Obtain the address (URL) of your Self Service web pages, your username, and your password from your System Administrator. |
Use this procedure to log in to the Self Service interface.
Step 1 | Enter https://<service-ip-or-node-name>/selfservice/#/login?theme=cisco_selfservice&lang=<language> in your browser URL field; for example https://172.29.21.200/selfservice/#/login?theme=cisco_selfservice&lang=en-us. With this example, the Self Service interface uses the Cisco selfservice theme and the text on the Login page is displayed in English. | ||
Step 2 | Enter your
username or email address.
| ||
Step 3 | Enter the password provided by your administrator. | ||
Step 4 | Click
Login.
By default, when you log in to the Self Service interface, the landing page appears. The landing page cannot be customized in this release of the user interface. For more information on the user roles and themes that are available, refer to Cisco Unified Communications Domain Manager, Release 10.6(1) Maintain and Operate Guide. If you are logging in for the first time, you may be prompted to change your password. See First Login. The Landing Page consists of three main areas as shown in the following figure:
|
If configured by your Administrator, you may be prompted to change your password when you login to Self Service for the first time.
Note | First login password change applies only to Cisco Unified Communications Domain Manager 10.6(1) authenticated users. It does not apply to SSO or LDAP authenticated users. |
Must consist of at least eight characters, and contain at least:
Do not use keyboard patterns based or obvious passwords such as a birthday or your name.
Do not share your passwords with other users.
Do not write down your password or store it in an obvious place, such as on a pin-board or in a diary.
Note | Session timeouts do not apply to SSO authenticated users. The main reason for this is that Cisco Unified Communications Domain Manager 10.6(1) could prematurely expire a session before the IDP has expired, resulting in a false sense of security on Cisco Unified Communications Domain Manager 10.6(1) while the IDP session is still alive. Cisco Unified Communications Domain Manager 10.6(1) honors the the SessionNotOnOrAfter SAML 2.0 attribute. This is equivalent to an absolute session timeout, although controlled by the IDP. |
Defines the number of minutes a session remains active when there is no activity in the session. Default is 20 minutes.
Defines the maximum number of minutes a session can be active. Default is 1440 minutes (24 hrs).
In both instances, the following message is displayed to notify you of a pending timeout:
Your session will expire in 30 seconds
Any mouse or keyboard activity after receiving session timeout notification is deemed as 'activity' and results in the extension of your current session. If there is no activity within the specified time, you are automatically logged out of Self Service and returned to the Login screen, as soon as you try to perform a transaction.
After the time period elapses, you are automatically logged out of Self Service and returned to the Login screen.
