Log in with the username 'root' and root's password. This usually can't be done over ssh, only over a local terminal.

If you have a user with administrative privileges (meaning can change from system to system, membership in the 'wheel' group is sometimes sufficient) you can 'su - root', type in root's password, and login as root. This is an actual login, and does not involve sudo, or require a local terminal.
