Logging In

This page explains how to access Campus WoL, log in with your credentials, and what to expect on your first visit.

Accessing the Application

Campus WoL is a web application. Open your browser and navigate to the URL provided by your IT administrator. Any modern browser (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge) will work.

HTTPS

In production, Campus WoL is typically served over HTTPS through a reverse proxy. Your administrator will provide the correct URL.

Logging In

  1. Open the Campus WoL URL in your browser
  2. Enter your username and password in the login form
  3. Click Log In

Login Page

Capture the login form with username and password fields and the Log In button.

First-Time Login

If this is your first time logging in, your administrator will provide your initial credentials. If you are the first administrator setting up the system, use the default admin account configured during deployment.

Tip

After your first login, change your password immediately using the Security Center (available to admins) or by asking your administrator.

Session Duration

After logging in, your session remains active for 120 minutes. After that, you will be redirected to the login page and need to log in again. This timeout is a security measure to protect unattended sessions.

Your session is managed by a JWT (JSON Web Token) — a secure token issued when you log in that proves your identity to the system.

Rate Limiting

To protect against unauthorized access attempts, login attempts are rate-limited. You can make up to 10 login attempts within any 5-minute window. If you exceed this limit, additional attempts are temporarily rejected until a slot opens up.

Not a lockout

This is a sliding-window rate limiter, not a hard lockout. You are not locked out for a fixed period — requests resume as slots become available. Simply wait a few seconds and try again.
