Hello trini18,
Thanks for your interest in StarWind solution
You can't login inside CentOS VM, it is locked to log in.
For StarWind Web console use the following credentials:
Username: starwind
Password: starwind
By default, Gateway virtual machine will recieve automatic IP address via DHCP. It is recommended to create a DHCP reservation, configure DNS resolving and set a static IP address for this VM. In order to access StarWind Web Console outside from your local network, Gateway virtual machine must have Internet access.

Hello, Trini18. Are you sure you are using correct IP for connection? Can you ping the Gateway VM?

StarWind Web Console is for management existing StarWind disks. You have to Install StarWind Web Console feature using StarWind Virtual SAN Installer Wizard. You can
install that on your Windows-based physical host or virtual machine that has LAN access to your StarWind Virtual SAN servers.
