allocated per console proxy VM. The AJAX application connects to this IP. The console proxy then

<note>
<para>You can configure the system.vm.random.password parameter to create a random system VM
password to ensure higher security. If you reset the value for system.vm.random.password to
true and restart the Management Server, a random password is generated and stored encrypted in
the database. You can view the decrypted password under the system.vm.password global
parameter on the &PRODUCT; UI or by calling the listConfigurations API.</para>
