6 Logging in to the TrueNAS Web Interface
TrueNAS uses the Multicast DNS service, also known as Bonjour or mDNS, to make the system ac-
cessible on most networks without additional setup.
Run a web browser on another computer on the same network. Open the TrueNAS web interface by
typing
truenas.local
or the IP address of the TrueNAS Mini system into the browser address bar
and pressing
Enter
.
Log in with:
Username:
root
Password:
abcd1234
After logging in, you can change the
root
account password in
Account --> Users
to increase system
security.
When more than one TrueNAS device is connected to the network, mDNS can experience name con-
flicts. Give each TrueNAS device a unique hostname like
truenas1.local
and
truenas2.local
to avoid this problem. The hostname is changed in
Network --> Global Configuration --> Hostname
in
the TrueNAS web interface.
