Re: Default Passwords for World Wide Packets/Lightning Edge Equipment

[Benjamin BILLON <bbillon-ml () splio fr>]

Did you try to get in touch with Ciena people? I'm sure they will be 
comprehensive about how you get their products (not being exactly a 
customer).
You could maybe even get an access to products' documentation without 
providing S/N:

I didn't try myself, but I guess getting the full documentation is worth it.
