Default Admin account login for PubSub+ AWS AMI

Dan Fergsuon

Just curious, what is the admin password for a new AMI deployed on AWS's EC2 instance? I'm trying to login as an admin user via the web server hosted on the AMI as outlined here: https://docs.solace.com/Solace-PubSub-Manager/PubSub-Manager-Overview.htm
I cannot login as admin without a password. Is there a default I can use?

Hi, have you created your admin user with the instructions here https://docs.solace.com/Solace-SW-Broker-Set-Up/Starting-SW-Brokers-for-the-First-Time/Set-Up-AWS-Marketplace.htm#Step3

Hi, I believe the AMI image doesn't come with an any default password for the admin user and you won't be able to log on until you have set up a password as described in the link to the docs given by amackenzie ( https://solace.community/home/leaving?target=https://docs.solace.com/Solace-SW-Broker-Set-Up/Starting-SW-Brokers-for-the-First-Time/Set-Up-AWS-Marketplace.htm#Step3 ).
This is to ensure a secure password is set up in a secure way before you can log on to the broker CLI/WebUI.

Thanks!
I did try to SSH using the Browser-based terminal with no luck. Is this intentional? I believe AMIs require some additional configuration to allow browser-based SSH access and I presume those steps have not been taken with the default AMI for security reasons.

I'll give the officially documented approach a shot!
