Recovering the administrator password

If the Administrator password has been lost, you can reset the administrator password to the factory default

that shipped on the tag with the Onboard Administrator module. The Onboard Administrator resets a lost

password to Lost Password/Flash Disaster Recovery (LP/FDR) mode. To reset the administrator password to
the factory default:

1.

Connect a computer to the serial port of the Active Onboard Administrator using a null-modem cable.

2.

With a null-modem cable (9600 N, 8, 1, VT100) locally connect to the Onboard Administrator.

3.

Open a suitable terminal window utility (Windows or Linux), and connect to the Active Onboard
Administrator.

4.

Press and hold in the Onboard Administrator reset button for 5 seconds.

5.

To boot the system into Lost Password modem Press L. The password appears as the system reboots.
