Sophos UTM 9 - Login and set password via console and without using WebAdmin

Madhuri Sampath

Hi,

 

I'm currently trying to automate logging into multiple Sophos UTM instances on AWS. I don't want to login to the WebAdmin since I have around 20 instances of Firewall running.

Is there a way to set it up via console, i.e, enter the host details and setup admin password as the WebAdmin initial login page?

 

Thanks,

Madhuri

    Hi  

    Would you be more specific about your requirements? Do you want a way to log into SSH or you want a way to log into UTM Webadmin? 

    Regards

    Hi Jaydeep,

    I want to SSH into the firewall instead of webadmin.

    I intend to automate the firewall login along with AWS Cloudformation template but currently, for any firewall instance on AWS, I must always login to the webadmin first to setup the root password. Is there a way to do this via SSH login too?

    I am prompted for a password as soon as I SSH into the firewall instance as root. For this, I must know either the default password or be able to change the password to access the firewall configuration.

    Hi,

    there is no default password for SSH login, you create the password in the web admin page, then you can use SSH. You will also need to create the loginuser password.

    The default ssh login is loginuser then change to root user and security feature which again you can disable but first you must login to eh web admin page.
