The video tutorial demonstrates how to unseal a Vault using the default unseal keys. It begins with an SSH session to a node in AWS, checking the Vault status, and confirming the seal type as Shamir. The tutorial explains that no configuration is needed for the default unseal mechanism. It then walks through initializing the Vault, obtaining unseal keys and a root token, and using these keys to unseal the Vault. Finally, it shows how to authenticate with the root token and interact with Vault commands.
