Caution icon Caution If you chose the default configuration for the Administration Console during installation, the administrator username is configured as "admin" and the password as "root." To protect the security of your server, you should change these from the defaults as soon as possible.

To configure usernames and passwords

  4. The Users page displays.

  5. Perform the desired action:
