# How do I sign in to my FASTPANEL panel?

https://www.seturack.com/en/knowledgebase/article/how-do-i-sign-in-to-my-fastpanel-panel

1. In the panel, open **My servers** and click your server.
2. On the **Overview** tab, wait for the **App** row to say "FASTPANEL is ready". The page refreshes itself.
3. Open the link in the **Panel address** row. Your browser warns about a self-signed certificate; this is your own server, so you can continue. Enter the details from the **Login** and **Password** rows.

## First steps

1. On first sign-in the panel asks for a license. Type your email address to request FASTPANEL's free license, or enter your own key.
2. Add your domain on the **Sites** page.
3. Get a Let's Encrypt certificate from the site's settings.

## Good to know

- The panel runs on port **8888**.
- The license is between you and FASTPANEL. Seturack charges no license fee.
