gns3util cluster-control auth set-default-user

Mark a stored user as the default for a cluster

​
Synopsis

Mark one of the saved users as the default for a cluster. When no —user flag is given on subsequent ‘ctl’ commands, the default user for that cluster is used automatically. Requires —cluster (-c) to identify which cluster to update. If [username] is omitted a fuzzy picker opens so you can choose interactively.
