User Authentication
The administrator has write access for parameters governing the onboard
agent. You should therefore assign a password as soon as possible, and
store it in a safe place. (If your password is lost, reload the system firmware
as described in Appendix B.)
The default administrator name is “admin” with the password “admin.”
Note that the user name and password controls access to both the Web
interface and the console menu.
