Logging In¶

When your browser displays the Log in box, type the default logon name nxadmin and the password that you specified during installation. Click the Login button. User names and passwords are case-sensitive and nonrecoverable.

The first time you log on to the console, you will see the NeXpose News page, which lists all updates and improvements in the installed NeXpose system, including new vulnerability checks. If you do not wish to see this page every time you log on to NeXpose after an update, clear the check box for automatically displaying this page after every login. You can always view the News page by clicking the News link that appears in a row near the top right corner of every page of the console interface.

Click the Home link to view the NeXpose Security Console Home page.
