  3. Here it will ask for GMS password, this should be the super admin account password for the Application interface login(/sgms).
  4. Now enter the new password for firewall and confirm password and then click Change password.
  5. This will create a task and execute it, once it is executed, you will see GMS synchronizing with the firewall. And the password will be changed, you can test this by logging into the firewall with new password.

    NOTE: Similarly, this can be done for a group of firewalls at Group Level.
