There are backdoors to doing this but it is illegal for anyone to give you this information as it is a security risk. I would contact Brocade direct and see if they can assist you in cracking the unit.

As a hint, just ask them for the "root" password.

You need to get a file from Brocade (or somewhere) called passwd.default and copy it onto the switch while the switch is booted into a special mode. There are a few more details to it than that, but if you can get the file, repost, and I'll help you with the rest privately.

hello do you have a clue where i can find the file (chrissie.wilhelm@gmx.de)

I am not sure where you would obtain this file, except from Brocade. You may try finding a SAN Administrator using a 2400 that is under service by Brocade. Anyone fitting this description should be able to obtain the file and procedure. I use 3900s and 12000s in my fabrics.
