The kots Admin UI provides a visual interface for managing the DataStax Mission Control installation. It handles DataStax Mission Control configuration, licensing, and upgrades. Configuring access to this interface is accomplished through the kots kubectl plugin.

Prerequisite

You must have a pre-installed Control Plane Mode server that runs the application manager kotsadm. To meet this server prerequisite, see Installing Control-Plane.

Procedure

kubectl proxy

To access the Admin Console from a local machine, run this command on a pre-installed Control Plane Mode server that runs the application manager kotsadm:

Example command using the namespace flag:
```
kubectl kots admin-console -n mission-control
```
The namespace value, signaled with the -n flag, must be mission-control. See the Replicated documentation for details.
Type Ctrl+C to exit.
The kubectl command opens localhost port 8800, which forwards to the kotsadm service. Use the --port flag to specify an alternate port.
Open a web browser to http://localhost:8800. This opens the Admin Console.
