Research direction

Start by reproducing the failure with "docker compose up" and inspect the OpenTelemetry Collector and BIG-IP authentication configuration associated with the /mgmt/shared/authn/login request. Done means the collector authenticates successfully, scrapes metrics without the 401 error, and the dashboard displays data.

Description

Hi there,
I've encountered an issue with Otel Collector after running the command "docker compose up". As a result, the dashboard has no data.
The error message is "Error scraping metrics {"error": "endpoint /mgmt/shared/authn/login returned code 401"}"
I have researched this issue and know that it comes from the account not being authorized, however, I am using an admin account.
Does anyone have the same issue? Please help me!
