By default, everyone in your network has access to the Lansweeper web console. Access can also be restricted however, by following these instructions. To have your browser handle authentication of anyone accessing the console, you will need to make changes to your web server settings. Your web server is either IIS, IIS Express or UltiDev. If you're unsure which web server you're using, have a look at the Configuration\Website Settings section of the Lansweeper console. This article explains how to enable authentication under IIS Express.

If your web console is hosted in IIS Express, do the following to enable authentication in your web server settings:
- Right-click the following executable, found on the machine hosting your console, and select Run as administrator:Program Files (x86)\Lansweeper\IISexpress\ExpressAuthentication.exe
If you don't run the executable as an administrator, it may be unable to make changes to your IIS Express configuration file and Windows may throw the following generic permissions error:
Unhandled exception has occurred in your application. If you click Continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue. If you click Quit, the application will close immediately. Access to the path 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Lansweeper\IISexpress\iisexpress.config' is denied.
- Select Integrated authentication and hit the Change button. Keep in mind that this will log everyone out of the console.
