Connecting to the Grafana server
Once you have installed and launched Grafana, open a browser page to access the Grafana application. It can be found at http://localhost:3000. If everything goes well, you should see a login page, as follows:

Log in with the admin username with the password admin. You will then be prompted to change it to something more secure (which you can skip if you wish). Once you have logged in, you should see the base Grafana interface:
