Explanation

When a Cisco SD-WAN vSmart Controller is deployed as a virtual machine on VMware ESXi, the factory-default credentials are username 'admin' with password 'admin'. This applies to the initial out-of-box state before any hardening or customization. Administrators are expected to change this password immediately after first login as part of the initial setup process. The other combinations (cisco/admin, admin/cisco, cisco/cisco) do not match the Cisco SD-WAN vSmart default - 'cisco' as a default password is associated with some other Cisco platforms, not vSmart.
