db = db.getSiblingDB('cgrates')
db.createUser(
 {
 user: "cgrates",
 pwd: "CGRateS.org",
 roles: [ { role: "dbAdmin", db: "cgrates" } ]
 }
)

MongoDB shell version v3.4.10
connecting to: mongodb://127.0.0.1:27017
MongoDB server version: 3.4.10

Successfully added user: {Successfully added user: { "user" : "cgrates", "roles" : [ { "role" : "dbAdmin", "db" : "cgrates" } ]}

By default mongo server will only listen to localhost, modify that in** /etc/mongod.conf**

Quick Restart and you’re good to go!

# systemctl restart mongod
