  2. If you are accessing the web UI for the first time, enter user credentials.
  3. Once the authentication is complete, you will see the main documentation page. This page contains configuration parameters for accessing the cluster.

  4. Select a tab with your operating system (Linux, macOS, or Windows) in the mid-screen menu bar. Depending on the system, you will see the configuration commands, which will create the required context for connecting to the cluster once they are executed.
