I have a BCM50 that one of my counterparts changed the IP on and then forgot what it was. How do I reset the IP to default without knowing what it is? There isn't a serial port on the box to do a direct connect.
Thanks,
Ross
 
You can connect an ethernet cable on the OAM port of the BCM50 and connect using the default OAM IP address (10.10.11.1 if im not mistaken!)
 
Plug into the OAM port (far left port of the 4 LAN/expansion ports). You'll get a DHCP address of 10.10.11.2. Connect via element manager to 10.10.11.1.

 
if you dont get an IP via DHCP on the OAM port, install some ethernet-sniffer tool (like wireshark) and monitor that port while booting the bcm.
