Configuration and management
Change the default password for the admin user
The unique, factory-assigned password for the default admin user account is printed on the bottom
label of the device and on the loose label included in the package. When you first log into the WebUI or
the command line, you will be required to change the password for the admin user prior to being able
to save any configuration changes.
If you erase the device configuration or reset the device to factory defaults, the password for the
admin user will revert to the original, factory-assigned default password.
Note
If your device was manufactured prior to the release of firmware version 19.11.x, the default
user name may be root.
