Dealing with console login password loss
CAUTION:
Dealing with console login password loss from BootWare menus requires device reboot and is
service-disruptive.
How to deal with console login password loss depends on the state of password recovery capability
(see
). Password recovery capability controls console user access to the device
configuration and SDRAM from BootWare menus.
•
If password recovery capability is enabled, a console user can access the device configuration
without authentication and configure new passwords.
•
If password recovery capability is disabled, a console user must restore the factory-default
configuration before configuring new passwords. Restoring the factory-default configuration
deletes the main and backup next-startup configuration files.
To enhance system security, disable password recovery capability.
