Change Disaster-recovery Username and Password
When you define the root-system username and password initially after starting the NCS 1002, the same
username and password gets mapped as the disaster-recovery username and password for the System Admin
mode. However, it can be changed.
The disaster-recovery username and password are useful in these scenarios:
• Access the system when the AAA database, which is the default source for authentication in System
Admin, is corrupted.
• Access the system through the management port, when, for some reason, the System Admin console is
not working.
• Create new users by accessing the System Admin using the disaster-recovery username and password,
when the regular username and password is forgotten.
You can configure only one disaster-recovery username and password at a time.
