STEP 8: Changing default root password.
It is strongly recommended that you change the default 'root' password.
Please use a password that you consider to be safe, secure, and memorable.
Changing password for user root.
New Password:
Enter the new root password and press Enter. The Linux root password is similar to a Windows administrator
password. The root user is a super user who has full access to all commands and directories on the computer.
This password should be kept as secure as possible because it allows full access to the machine. This password is not
often needed on a day-to-day basis but is required to perform AirWave upgrades and advanced troubleshooting. If
you lose this password, contact Dell support at dell.com/support for resetting instructions.
