The Cacti web interface explained
The first time you login, use the username admin and password admin (for Linux) or cactipw (for Windows). You will be forced to change the admin password but, after doing so, you will be presented with the Cacti web interface:
The initial page is called the Console and only administrators and users with special access rights are able to see it. From here you can fully administer Cacti.
The Console tab
The Console tab is where you manage your Cacti installation. From here you can add devices and users or create graphs and assign them to a tree. We're going to explain each of the menu sections next.
