that came
with your switch:
The switch is now configured with a Manager password, IP address, and
subnet mask, and can be accessed through your network using Telnet, the web
browser interface, or an SNMP-based network management tool such as HP
TopTools for Hubs & Switches.
To Recover from a Lost Manager Password:
If you cannot start a con-
sole session at the manager level because of a lost Manager password, you
can clear all passwords and user names by getting physical access to the
switch and pressing and holding the Clear button for a full second.
