Accessing IDIH from DSR

Users will be able to access IDIH using single sign-on which does not require the user to login again for IDIH, provided a primary DNS server is being used in conjunction with IDIH. However, using this mechanism, users will be able to access only the ProTrace application.

Note: Single sign-on must be configured prior to accessing IDIH from DSR. For information about how to configure single sign-on, refer to the Operations, Administration, and Maintenance (OAM) User's Guide.

To log into IDIH from DSR SOAM GUI:

Using a Web browser, type the FQDN for a DSR SOAM.
Log into the SOAM by entering the correct User Name and the corresponding Password.
Note: Check with the system administrator for the user name and password.
Navigate to Diameter > Troubleshooting with IDIH > Maintenance > Traces.
Click the Launch IDIH button.
Alternatively, select a trace and click Analyze With IDIH.

In the absence of a DNS server, the user may authenticate directly on the IDIH server using the "idihtrace" user ID. This user ID provides the same level of functionality as using single sign-on from the SOAM.

The procedure for accessing IDIH with the "idihtrace" user ID is almost the same as for signing in via single sign-on with the exception of replacing FQDN with IP Address in the above procedure.
