By default, the Palo Alto Networks PA-220 ships with superuser name admin / password admin. I can change these (either via ssh > set password
or via the Web GUI Device > Administrators > admin
. But, the password seems to remain admin.
This is true even if I click Commit on the Web GUI, and it says committed successfully.
(This is a new brand firewall, not even licensed yet.)
