The default administrator user on all LoadMasters is the bal user. The password for the bal user is set after initially configuring the LoadMaster using the WUI. Before initially setting the password, the default password for the bal user is 1fourall. The bal user has the highest level of access in the LoadMaster. All other users created have only a subset of the access which the default account has. The bal user is the only user who can access the LoadMaster using SSH.

The password for the bal user can be changed in System Configuration > System Administration > User Management. The bal password can only be changed by the bal user.
