   - **HTTP example:**
     
     `http://[IP-Address]:8080`
     
     or `http://[IP-Address]:30020` for containerized solutions.
   - **HTTPS example:**
     
     `https://[IP-address]:8443`
     
     or `http://[IP-Address]:30001` for containerized solutions.
3. When the login page displays, enter your **username** and **password**. Default admin user login information:
   - **Username**: admin

The **Home** page displays.

We strongly recommend that you change the default password to increase security. Password can be changed by clicking the user account on the upper right corner of the window.
