Hi All,

I forgot our Summit X450e admin account password. Can anybody explain the step for using BootROM for resetting the password.

Thanks (from Rajesh_Panchal)

Hi pacan4ik1_pacan4ik1,
I've tried your VI suggestion but have 2 problems with it.
1. I don't have a way of hashing a password to insert in the config file.
2. The file is read-only, so not able to save password change anyway

Any suggestiions? Also, any idea why BootRom > Config None or Default isn't working?

Thanks
Chris

I don't want to erase switch configuration. I just want to reset my admin account password. (from Rajesh_Panchal)
