# How to Access Web Host Manager, or WHM?

[WHM or Web Host Manager](https://help.ex2.com/en/article/what-is-whm-1y3v4br/?bust=1784208648682) is a reseller end control pane. It allows you administrator access to the back end of cPanel. After you placed an order and made a successful payment, you will receive a welcome email containing login details.

You can access WHM from an IP Address or Hostname you received in your welcome email with the following port.

###### Permanent URL:

https://$hostname.com:2087  (SSL Protected)\
http://$hostname.com:2086 (Non-SSL - Insecure)

###### Login using the IP Address:

https://$ip-here:2087 (SSL Protected -- Need Exception)

If your domain propagates, you will be able to access it from your domain like that: https://example.com:2087

# How to Login to WHM?

Open your WHM URL, and once WHM opens in your browser, it will ask for your username/password.
