ssh to raspberry default password not working

So I am completely new to this.

Want to troubleshoot my Pi not updating emons properly (variable time from 10secs to 10 mins or more)

using Mac terminal. ssh to ip of Pi  the reply is Mark@192.168.0.28's password:

when i enter password as "root" I get password denied.

guess I am doing something wrong.

Question is what?

Hi

You probably need to log in as Pi (the default).

Try using command ssh  <username_on_pi>@<ip_of_pi>

Thank Ian.

I do not see an option to login I am only asked for password.

The docs I have say that the login and password are both root by default?
