In the previous chapter, we learned about the basics of the Metasploit Framework and looked at some of the features we can use in Metasploit. In this chapter, we will focus on the web interface for the Metasploit Framework. The interface really helps users who have less experience with the command-line interface (CLI). From reconnaissance to reporting, the interface lets us handle all the stages of penetration testing with a single interface. In this chapter, we'll learn how to install and use the Metasploit web interface. Later, we'll learn how to use the web interface to perform reconnaissance and access the Meterpreter payload.
We'll cover the following topics in this chapter:
- Introduction to the Metasploit web interface
- Installing and setting up the web interface
- Getting started with the Metasploit web interface
