Hi All,

If you don’t know your MC login password.Now We have two ways to recovery MC password:

Option1:

This works after 6.x/ 8.1.0.3

at least on an MD with a forgotten or lost password.

From the serial console interface (NOTE: This does not work from SSH by design)

1. Boot MD until User: prompt

2. Enter "password" for username

3. Enter "forgetme!" for password

4. Enter "local-config enable"

5. Enter "config t" to enter config mode

6. Enter "mgmt-user admin root" to reset admin password

7. You will be prompted for new admin password and asked to confirm.

8. Enter "wr mem" to write the changes. If you forget this step, you get to do it all over again.

9. You now have access to your MD with admin as user and the password you just input in step 7.

Option2:

> 1) Issue these commands in the cpboot prompt:

> cpboot> setenv cfgfile 1

> cpboot> save

> cpboot> boot

>

> The set up dialog box is displayed.

> 2) Enter all your information.

> 3) As the controller boots up, stop the autoboot and issue these commands:

cpboot> setenv cfgfile

cpboot> save

cpboot> boot

you have to excute the three steps. Then the controller will change to default setting
