This is normal, that is the builtin account that uses the passwd password. You cannot change this account username.

You can change the password of it with :

passwd [YOURPASSWORD]

Hi,

what you can do is you can add other usernames and passwords with the command:

username test password test

aaa authentication ssh console LOCAL

this means you are authenticating SSH users with the username and password created locally...

Regards,
