Note: The localhost address works only if you are running the browser on the computer on which the Web Administration Tool is installed. If the Web Administration Tool is installed on a different computer, replace localhost with the hostname (for example ecmukdemo77 as shown above) or the IP address of the computer where the Web Administration Tool is installed.
If it is not possible to deploy the Web Administration Tool into a new profile, users must add the directory server’s certificate to the profile’s trust store. Additionally, for server-client authentication the user must add the WebSphere Application Server profile certificate to the directory server’s trust store.
