# First-time login

The final validation step is to log in to the OpenIAM web applications. First, find the IP address of your VM.

Open your browser, preferably Chrome or Firefox, and go to:

`http://[IP address of your installation]/webconsole`

Use these credentials for the first login:

```shellscript
Username: sysadmin
Password: passwd00
```

Enter the username shown below and click `Next`.

The authentication flow uses two screens. You will be asked to enter the password on the next screen.

The next screen forces you to change the default password. As you enter the new password, you will see the password policy on the side.
