Access to an FSE implementation from the FSE Management Console client is allowed only to configured users that are stored in the FSE Management Console user database. For the first login to an FSE implementation (establishing a connection with the appropriate FSE Management Console server), the FSE Management Console client provides the default user named admin. This user has the Superuser profile type and an empty string as its password.

IMPORTANT: You should change the password of the admin user as soon as possible to prevent potential unauthorized accesses. For details, see ”Displaying and modifying properties of an FSE Management Console users” on page 59.
