Hi all,

i have a BCM 50 for my office i just log in it using element manger just to have a look, the element manger forced me to change the default password.
i know tried to log it again but it seems the password is wrong, i forget the password and i need to log in the system again. is there any way to do that it is no problem to lose any configuration because i do not do any.

thanx.

 
i read the level 2 procedure from Nortel documentation but it does not work with me!!!

i simply push the reset button by a needle and nothing happen

It can be tricky, you have to get the timing right.

I don't always get it first time.....
