Password Recovery

Password Recovery is provided for cases where a user has forgotten the Superuser and/or
Administrator login password. Password recovery is accomplished by connecting to the unit serially
using a HyperTerminal like program and rebooting the unit. As the power-up sequence is occurring,
depress <Control> <C>. Upon receipt of this command, a text recovery key will be generated and
displayed prior to the prompt. This key is used to reset the passwords. An example recovery key
prompt is: 617A6185774$

You must call Datacom Service Center with this recovery key in order to obtain the required
response to reset passwords. Given a valid reset response, the factory default passwords will be
saved in Non-Volatile memory. If an invalid response is given, a new recovery key will be calculated
and displayed at the prompt, as described above, after first clearing the screen.

heading, a brief overview of the command display function is given followed by an example
(Example: >) command input.
