Hi,
I deployed virtual ISE 2.6 and did the initial setup.
During setup I had to define a password.
After the setup, I logged into webinterface. Manual says that I will be asked to change the password, but I wasn't.
So I went to Administration -> Admin Access -> Administrators -> Admin Users and changed the password.
Now I can login to the webinterface with the new password.
But I cannot login via ssh. Neither with new password, nor with password set during initial setup.
Can you help me?

what happends if you loging using VMWARE Console same username and password.
by the way what username you using for SSH ?
if you have access to GUI you can see the events, what events you see ?

I was able to login via vmware console.
After that I tried ssh and that worked, too.
That's strange.

Hi,
you have two types of users:
In the initial setup (Step 2) you were asked to give a username (for CLI user) - if not set default = admin
You have to use that specific user and its PW to connect via SSH.

I don't know why but now it worked. My pw consists of 6 characters so it's not really possible to make a typo.
I tried it 10 times.
Can you tell me how change the password of the cli user?

Login as admin and use the command "password"
Other note : change the password policy settings not to lock after default perioid.

Hi,
do I need to do a "wr" after changing the password?
Does ISE act like a switch?

No, once you change the password using password command it is changed.
make sure you change the password policy as suggested.

hi,
If you can successfully login and just want to change your password, you simply type password and change your password.
ciscoISE01/my_newUser# password
Enter old password:
Enter new password:
Confirm new password:
ciscoISE01/my_newUser#
If you have a colleague (CLI-user) who forgot its password, you can do overwrite the user credentials in config.
ciscoISE01/my_newUser# sh run | i username
username my_newUser password hash $5$KrbvrSFS$lw4TaTmWM3272mvmboNNc/xO4u0DiJW3opdOjwPUB36 role admin
username my_colleague password hash $5$mwnjMpxw$rGaUFZkQ0pvkWUoIIU.YOqxZw07l9yVIhF62cdK78wB role admin
ciscoISE01/my_newUser#
ciscoISE01/my_newUser# conf t
ciscoISE01/my_newUser(config)# username my_colleague password plain yourNewPassword1 role admin
ciscoISE01/my_newUser(config)# end
