Accessing the console

The console is the web interface for Puppet Enterprise.

Use the console to:

  • Manage node requests to join the Puppet deployment.
  • Assign Puppet classes to nodes and groups.
  • Run Puppet on specific groups of nodes.
  • View reports and activity graphs.
  • Browse and compare resources on your nodes.
  • View package and inventory data.
  • Manage console users and their access privileges.
  • Reaching the console

    The console is served as a website over SSL, on whichever port you chose when installing the console component.

  • Logging in

    Accessing the Puppet Enterprise (PE) console requires a username and password.
