GigaVUE‑FM Administrator Authentication by Platform
This table describes the initial values that are used for first time log in as a GigaVUE-FM administrator via the GUI or CLI on various supported platforms. Important to know:
- The credentials used in the GigaVUE-FM GUI interface are different than those used in the GigaVUE-FM CLI interface.
- As deployments vary by platform, so do the admin authentication methods. Depending on the platform where GigaVUE-FM is installed, you may need to specify the authentication method (SSH Public Key or Password) during deployment or use a pre-defined default password and then change the password the first time you log in.
- Additionally, the default login credentials have also changed in certain software releases.

Rules & Notes |
For AWS, initial access is only available using an SSH Public Key |
During Azure deployments, you must specify one authentication method and provide the value. Either authentication method will work if configured; however, on Azure, you cannot specify both, you can only configure one method. |
In VMware deployments, you may configure an SSH Public Key and/or a Password. You may configure both, but you must configure at least one of them. If you configure both, then you can use either method to access the GigaVUE‑FM CLI. |
Password change is required on first login. |
