First of all, disable HTTPS and SSH on WAN. Second: XG only allow the admin user on SSH, not any user with admin privileges. You can also move to SSH key based authentication.

Hi,

can you access the CLI by starting a session in the GUI?

Next, have you configured SSH access?

In GUI session there is no Console option.

And am accessing the firewall outside the network using public IP.
