It is not entirely simple or straight forward. A quick search reveals this post which using the "sysadminctl" command, but you still need to perform other steps. Most instructions use an older method of using "dscl", but this involves dozens of steps (one post mentioned issues in Monterey). In the linked post, read some of the later comments as it mentions one or two other steps which may be needed when using "sysadminctl". Don't just blindly enter any of the commands...make sure you understand them and what they are doing (this includes being careful about the scripts offered in other posts).

Maybe someone more knowledgeable will chime in for a better or more detailed option along with things to consider.
