Login to management console

[FaridBMS]

Hi, I am new to meraki MX since there is no documentation from my previous tech support so I could not know the username and password to login into Management console portal

I can login into the cloud dashboard only btw, is there a way to reset password for the management console portal?

Thank you all

Configuring the Local Status Page 

Using the Cisco Meraki Device Local Status Page

Hello @FaridBMS ,

If your MX firewall is online at the dashboard, it's likely that is got the local password from the dashboard network settings (if it did synchronise config successfully).

Assuming config sync is ok, you can re-define local admin password in menu Network Wide -> General ; then, scroll down to Device configuration section and define a new password in Local credentials. Give it about 3 minutes to sync again and you should be good to login to Local Status Page.

If you're still unable to login, perhaps sync isn't working well. In that case, it's safe to do a factory reset and then login using default credentials. Once MX is back online, synchronisation will take place.

You can read and understand more about Local Status Page login here. And here you have more about redefining the local password.
