BIRT Analytics Administration runs as a browser-based application. After installation, the administrator opens a browser and connects to the administration application by typing a URL of the following format:
http://bahost:8110/baadmin
bahost is the name of the system on which BIRT Analytics Administration is deployed.
8110 is the port number used by BIRT Analytics.
baadmin is the context for BIRT Analytics Administration.
On initial access, the administrator logs in to the application by typing the user name, Administrator, and the default password, PASSWORD, as shown in Figure 1‑1. The administrative user, Administrator, has full permission to modify all configurable features of the BIRT Analytics system.

Actuate recommends changing the administrator password immediately after accessing the system to maintain security. For security reasons, Actuate also recommends that all users, including the administrator, log out of the system before closing any BIRT Analytics application. To log out, choose Logout in the top banner menu, as shown in Figure 1‑2.
