Once Exago is configured and working, access to the Admin Console should be completely disabled. The Admin Console should never be accessible in a production environment. For more information, review the Security Checklist.
Warning
Aside from the obvious security concerns by exposing the Admin Console in production, any changes made to the system configuration will invalidate all current user sessions causing an unsatisfactory user experience. For more information, review Modifying Configs in a Production Environment.
