Changing the admin password from the default

Use this procedure to change the password for the admin user.
  1. Create a new user via CLI.

    This step creates a deviation on the FSS.

    This example creates the user fssuser1 with the password UserFss1!
    enter candidate
system aaa authentication user fssuser1 password UserFss1!
system aaa authentication user fssuser1 role [admin]
system aaa authorization role admin services [cli ftp gnmi gribi json-rpc]
system configuration role admin rule / action write
commit stay
    The new user configs are added to the init config and SGCO.
  2. Create a new GNMI profile with the new user credentials (fssuser1/UserFss1!) and associated it with the node.
    Wait for the node to move to the READY state.
  3. Change the admin password via CLI, accept the relevant deviation on FSS. 
    system aaa authentication admin-user password adminfss1
commit stay
    The admin password change should reflected in both SGCO and the init config.
  4. Create another GNMI profile for the admin user, using the updated password.
    Wait for the node to move to the ready state.
