I have a 8010 chassis that is password locked. I am out of ideas on how to reset it back to default. Looking for advise.Thanks
 
Hi,

Just reboot the switch and hit 'any key' to interrupt the boot process. Within this cli (monitor mode) you can select the reset-pwd. Ofcourse, you have to have a serial connection and a reboot is neccesary.

After this you can login with rwa rwa to have all right and define new passwords.

goodluck!
 
I am working on a Nortel BCN 73000 and i am unable to login. I am looking for a way to reset it back to factory default. I also need to know the default login. Thanks
 

Thank JeroeNortel
