Recover From a Lost Password
You can use a local computer (a computer that connects to the Network Management Card through the
serial port) to access the control console.
1. Select a serial port at the local computer, and disable any service that uses that port.
2. Connect the provided RS-232 configuration cable to the selected port on the computer and to the
RS-232 console port at the Network Management Card.
3. Run a terminal program (such as HyperTerminal) on your computer and configure the selected
port for 9600 or 19200 bps, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit, and no flow control.
4. Press E NTER , repeatedly if necessary, to display the User Name prompt. If you are unable to
display the User Name prompt, verify the following:
– The serial port is not in use by another application.
– The terminal settings are correct as specified in step 3.
– The correct cable is being used as specified in step 2.
5. Press the Reset switch. The Status LED will flash alternately orange and green. Press the Reset
button a second time immediately while the LED is flashing to reset the user name and password
to their defaults temporarily.
6. Press E NTER as many times as necessary to redisplay the User Name prompt, then use the
default, apc, for the user name and password. (If you take longer than 30 seconds to log on after
the User Name prompt is redisplayed, you must repeat step 5 and log on again.)
7. From the Control Console menu, select System, then User Manager.
8. Select Administrator, and change the User Name and Password settings, both of which are
now defined as apc.
9. Press C TRL +C, log off, reconnect any serial cable you disconnected, and restart any service you
disabled.
