Hi again

Of course I`ve tried that before spamming list ,
but that does not helped in my case.
seems my device does not follow that instruction.

When prompted type bbb
there is no prompt at all . first chance to enter data
while boot process is thw login prompt .

any idea ?

regards
Hamid.

Hello,
From the patton website, a different model but why
not give it a shot?

Console into the unit via the RS-232 port

Reboot the RAS

When prompted type bbb

From the prompt Model29xx/31xx> 'type' factory

From the prompt Model29xx/31xx> 'type' reset

This procedure will set the unit back to factory
defaults

We no longer recover lost passwords.

Good Night Irene

?


Hi list

Here I`ve a patton 3201 router
exactly this :

http://commerce.patton.com/pe_products.asp?category=64

one of admins which is not working for company
anymore
,
configured it and we have no access  to him.
Now I want to use the device again but don`t know 
password or even username .

is there any way to reset the device back to factory
defaults ? or like cisco products a way to reset
password  from console , or even more dreamy a
MASTER
password .. ?

I even though of a brute-force attack , but there is
no guaranty I succeed . and it`s time consuming .

anybody can help ?


regards
hamid
