{
The console cable is connected to an incorrect serial port (the serial port in use is not the one set
on the terminal).
{
The properties of the terminal are incorrect. You must configure the console terminal as follows:
set
Bits per second
to
9600
,
Data bits
to
8
,
Parity
to
None
,
Stop bits
to
1
,
Flow control
to
None
,
and
Terminal Emulation
to
VT100
.
{
The console cable fails.
Garbled terminal display
If terminal display is garbled, make sure that the
Data bits
field is set to 8 for the console terminal. If the
Data bits
field is set to 5 or 6, the console terminal will display garbled characters.
No response from the serial port
If the serial port gives no response, check that the serial cable is in good condition and serial port settings
are correct.
Password loss
User password loss
If you lose your password, you cannot enter the system. In this case, you can boot the system by ignoring
the system configuration.
To solve the user password loss:
1.
Enter the main BootWare menu, and select
6
to boot the system by ignoring the system
configuration.
The system prompts the following:
Flag Set Success.
The output shows that the setting succeeded.
2.
When the main BootWare menu appears again, and select
0
to reboot the system.
System is rebooting now.
System start booting...
Booting Normal Extend BootWare....
3.
Set a new password in system view after the system reboots. The console port uses password
authentication, and the password is set to
123456
and stored in plain text.
<HP> system-view
[HP] user-interface console 0
[HP-ui-console0] authentication-mode password
[HP-ui-console0] set authentication password simple 123456
When you set the password by using the
set authentication password
{
cipher
|
simple
}
password
command, follow these guidelines.
•
If the
cipher
keyword is specified, the password is stored in cipher text. You cannot view the
password by using the
display current-configuration
command.
•
If the
simple
keyword is specified, the password is stored in plain text. You can use the
display
current-configuration
command to view the password in the current configuration.
