Logging into netFORUM Pro

When a user logs in to netFORUM Pro, they must pass through two levels of authentication. The network server is the first level of authentication. The second requires the user to enter their login name and password.

  1. To log in to netFORUM Pro, navigate to the following URL: https://netforum.avectra.com/. The Customer Login page appears. The Customer Login page provides you with three options; Customer Login, Free Trial, and Customer Support Area.
  2. Click the Customer Login button. In the Customer Login window, enter your credentials.
To bypass the first Customer Log-in page and go directly to the actual log-in page, visit the following URL: https://netforum.avectra.com/iweb
  1. Enter your netFORUM Pro User Name and Password in the User Name and Password fields.
  2. Click the Log In button.
    Once the user enters their User Name and Password, netFORUM Pro verifies the User ID. Once the user is authenticated, the system checks to see what security group the user is assigned to and then defines that user's access to the netFORUM Pro database and privileges accordingly.

 

After logging in, you will see a Welcome page with these sections:

  • A Scrolling Marquee that displays the latest featured news from Abila
  • Help with links to online help, product documentation, and release documentation
  • Product Announcements
  • Training Videos
  • Links to netFORUM Pro Community, Support, and Upcoming Events
  • Find Us On social media links

Note: You can disable the Welcome page by clicking the Do not show this page again check-box. Doing so is not recommended, as this page is updated every build–and occasionally between builds–with pertinent information.
