Accessing Bindplane Enterprise

  • License Configuration: If a license was not provided during deployment, SSH into the machine and execute the following command:
    sudo BINDPLANE_CONFIG_HOME=/var/lib/bindplane /usr/local/bin/bindplane init license --config /etc/bindplane/config.yaml.
    Confirm the restart prompt by selecting 'yes' at the end of the command.

  • Service Management: For those who have already provided a license, enable and start the Bindplane service via SSH with these commands:
    sudo systemctl enable bindplane
    sudo systemctl start bindplane

  • Firewall Settings: To enhance security, adjust the firewall rules by navigating to VPC Network and selecting Firewall.

  • Password Retrieval: Access the password by checking the auth.password field in the /etc/bindplane/config.yaml file.

  • Web Interface Access: Log into the Bindplane web interface by entering the instance's public IP address followed by port 3001 in your browser. Use the username admin and the password obtained from the configuration file.
