The credentials for Switchboard are separate from any other GitLab credentials you may already have
to sign in to a GitLab self-managed or GitLab.com instance.
NOTE:
If you sign in to Switchboard through a VPN, you may experience a `403 Forbidden` error. The workaround is to sign in directly rather than through a VPN.
After you first sign in to Switchboard, you must update your password and set up MFA before you can
complete your onboarding to create a new instance.
