It targets new Linux users or those who want an easy way to manage their servers on a graphical interface without the hassle of working on the command-line. + +Cockpit is easy to install and simple to use. At a glance, it allows you to perform the following tasks. + +* Keep tabs of system metrics and performance +* Create and manage users +* Browse and search system logs +* Inspect and interact with systemd-based services +* Access the terminal and run commands +* Inspect system’s hardware +* Create and manage virtual machines +* Upgrade software packages to their latest versions +* Configure Firewall & and many more. + +### 1) Update Local Package Index + +To start off, log into your server and refresh the local package index as follows. + +``` +$ sudo apt update +``` + +### 2) Install Cockpit Web Console + +The Cockpit web console packages are provided by the official Ubuntu repositories. You can verify this by running the following command. + +``` +$ apt search cockpit +``` + +So, install Cockpit using the APT package manager as shown. + +``` +$ sudo apt install cockpit -y +``` + +The command installs the Cockpit web console alongside other additional packages, libraries, and dependencies. + +![Apt-Command-Install-Cockpit-Ubuntu-22-04][1] + +Once installed, you can verify if cockpit is installed by running the following command: + +``` +$ apt -qq list cockpit +OR +$ dpkg -l cockpit +``` + +From the output below, we can see that Cockpit version 264-1 has been installed. + +![Check-Cockpit-WebConsole-Version-Ubuntu][2] + +In case, you planning to manage kvm virtual machines with cockpit then install following package + +``` +$ sudo apt install cockpit-machines -y +``` + +### 3) Install Cockpit Support for Podman + +By default, Cockpit does not provide support for podman. If you wish to administer and manage podman containers using Cockpit, install the cockpit-podman package which provides support for podman. + +``` +$ sudo apt install cockpit-podman y +``` + +![Install-Cockpit-Podman-Support-Ubuntu-22-04][3] + +### 4) Start Cockpit Web Console Service + +Unlike other services or daemons, Cockpit does not start automatically once installed. Therefore, start the Cockpit systemd service as shown. + +``` +$ sudo systemctl start cockpit +``` + +Next, verify that the Cockpit service is running as follows. + +``` +$ sudo systemctl status cockpit +``` + +The output confirms that the Cockpit service is up and running. + +![Cockpit-Service-Status-Ubuntu-22-04][4] + +Cockpit listens on TCP port 9090. You can verify this is the case by running the following ss command. + +``` +$ ss -tunlpe | grep cockpit +``` + +![Socket-Connection-Cockpit-Ubuntu-22-04][5] + +If the firewall is enabled on your Ubuntu 22.04 system, then allow 9090/tcp port so it’s web console can be accessed from outside + +``` +$ sudo ufw allow 9090/tcp +$ sudo ufw reload +``` + +![Allow-cockpit-console-port-ubuntu-22-04][6] + +### 5) Access Cockpit Web Console + +Cockpit is now fully installed and the only thing remaining is to access it and use it to manage your server. + +To access Cockpit Web console, browse the following address. + +https://server-ip:9090 + +You will get a warning that the website you are accessing is not private and that you could fall victim to hackers. Do not fret, as this happens since the server is encrypted by a self-signed SSL certificate which is not recognized by CA. + +To get around this issue, simply click ‘Advanced’ + +![Cockpit-WebConsole-URL-Ubuntu-22-04][7] + +Then click on ‘Proceed to server-ip’ link. + +![Accept-Certificate-Cockpit-WebConsole][8] + +Thereafter, the following login page will appear.

The ‘Overview’ page provides your system’s metrics at a glance. You will see details on CPU and memory usage, health status, and system information. + +To perform the administrative task, click on ‘Turn on administrative access’, it will prompt you to enter your user’s password. + +The left sidebar provides various options that you can view. + +![Cockpit-Dashboard-Ubuntu-22-04][10] + +For example, you can click on ‘Networking’ to view information about bandwidth statistics, network interfaces as well as network logs. + +![View-Network-Statistics-from-Cockpit-WebConsole][11] + +You can also click ‘Services’ to get information about all the system services. + +![System-Services-Status-Cockpit-WebConsole-Ubuntu-22-04][12] + +To view and install software updates, click on ‘Software Updates’ + +![Software-Updates-Cockpit-WebConsole-Ubuntu-22-04][13] + +In my case all the software updates are already installed, that’s why I am getting the status as ‘System is up to date’ + +##### Conclusion + +And that’s it.
