Hi,

I am doing Pen-testing of our customer's FW, NetScreen.
But I installed this FW also set password a few months ago so I already knew the password (they haven't changed).
In this case, what is the best way to do? 
just proceed the password cracking? then report them I managed to find the password?
or skip password cracking and then advise to reinforce the password policy?

Please advise.
Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Tony
