Administrator
Password
For security reasons, only the administrator user named
root
can initially log into your
console server
.
Only people who know the root password can access and reconfigure the
console server
itself. However,
anyone who correctly guesses the root password could gain access (and the default root password is
default
). To avoid this, enter and confirm a new root password before giving the
console server
any
access to, or control of, your computers and network appliances.
