Web Console
UPA has a web console to manage the policies in an offline, secure environment. The console includes the following sections.
Administration: This is where you define the Roles, Views, and Assignments for the various users.

Organization: This is where your domains are imported, OUs are managed, and policies are linked to OUs.

Universal Policies: This is where policies are managed including checkin/checkout, changes, updates, reviews, export, etc..

Auditing: This is where all audit event information is captured and tracked for User Sessions and Event auditing purposes.
