    Hello Thiyagu,

     

    Root is by default a maintenance account designed for Command line interface. You have an account called admin for GUI with same privilege.

     

  • Hello Thiyagu,

     

    Only the user root can have login for CLI, the user admin can have access for GUI and CLI, this configuration can do in system/user and change the access of the user admin with advances shell, or can you integrate F5 with different programs of authentication, for example active directory or TACACs or Radius.
