#### Default user

During the initial installation, a default user named "admin" with the ID: 1000 is created. For the first login, use this default administrator username. It is recommended to change the admin password as soon as possible.

{% hint style="info" %}
For the first connection, use the default administrator username to log in. &#x20;
{% endhint %}

### **Container Access**

Navigate to: `System` > `User Management` > `Container`

Nodeum offers a logical representation of file virtualization, creating an abstraction layer between file servers and their clients. This virtualization layer manages files and systems across different storage solutions. Access the file system through the network using standard protocols like NFS, SMB, and S3.&#x20;

For setup instructions, refer to the [Container configuration section](/data-archiving/container.md#privileges-definition).
