Nortel Contivity 2600 Password recovery

[edchen]

Is there a way to recover the administrator password on the Nortel Contivity, 2600?
I recently upgraded the server code to 4.00 and changed the admin password shortly after. I thought I wrote the password down correctly, but now it's not letting me in.

Any suggestions?


thanks,
Ed

Ed:

The only way to recover the password of a CES is through Nortel Networks. There is not a password recovery procedure like with Cisco devices. You have to contact Nortel Network to do that or your Nortel Business Partent if you have a maintenence contract with some one.

My best regards.

Gabriel.

Check the readme for Contivity;I believe there was a 'bug'
in that rev of code that caused your problem.
