Web Interface
After installation, open:
https://YOUR-NAS-IP:17889
HTTPS is enabled by default. Your browser may display a certificate warning because the initial certificate is self-signed.
IMPORTANT – Default Username and Password
Default username: admin
The administrator password is generated randomly during the first startup.
Method 1 – QTS Event Log (Recommended)
- Log in to your QNAP NAS administration interface.
- Open QuLog Center.
- Navigate to Local Device → Event Log.
- Search for UniFi Toolkit.
- Locate the event containing the administrator username and generated password.
The credentials are recorded automatically in the QTS Event Log after the first successful startup.
Method 2 – SSH Access
If the event is unavailable, connect to your NAS via SSH and execute:
cat /opt/Unifi-ToolKit/etc/initial-password.txt
This file contains the administrator username and password.
Forgot Your Password?
Connect via SSH and execute:
/opt/Unifi-ToolKit/reset-password.sh
A new random password will be generated and recorded in the QTS Event Log. The local password file will also be updated.
Security note: Passwords recorded in QTS events are visible to authorized log viewers. Change your password after the initial login and protect access to NAS logs.
Updates & Persistent Configuration
Application updates preserve your existing configuration, UniFi controller settings, encryption keys, SSL certificates, and SQLite database.
Built-in service management scripts provide start, stop, restart, status, and password reset operations.
