Machine Portal

Overview

Each customer gets access to a dedicated machine portal, enabling you to perform tasks such as workstation reboots, password resets, and rebuilds.


Portal access

As part of our tenant-defaults, access to this portal is available only via Computle Gateway, or another supported VPN/Zero Trust solutions.

By default, each tenant is provisioned with one user who has full administrative rights and access to the portal. Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) is required.

To access the portal, navigate to the unique URL provided to you, which typically follows the format:

tenantID.computle.net

If you haven't received this information, or require further assistance, please contact Computle support.


Machine controls

  • Boot: This button powers on the machine if it is currently powered off. Use this when you need to start a machine from a shutdown or powered-off state.

  • Shutdown: Clicking this button safely powers down the machine.

  • Restart: This button reboots the machine without powering it off completely.

  • Power Off: This option forcibly turns off the machine, similar to cutting power to a physical system. This should only be used if the machine is unresponsive.
