In the course of reorganizing our POP, we have cleverly mixed up all the TC boxes and lost the !root passwords. Our goal is to reset the passwords on the units without erasing the other flashed configuration information (v90) and to pull the v34 units from service. My questions then are:
(1) Will enabling Dip Switch 5 erase our v90 flash as well as reset the password (obviously not what we want)? If so, is there another way to reset the !root password (maybe using the adm account?) without losing our v90 flash? (2) Short of reconnecting the entire unit, is there a way to determine if the unit is v90 flashed or just v34 (like a version number, maybe?)?
Rob, The v90 enabler is on the nmc not the netserver. The !root password is needed to get into the netserver not the nmc. For that use the console cable and set the password. The dip switch 5 does not erase the v.90 enabling code. You will however have to reconfigure the nmc or the netserver, ie setting the ip address, gateway etc when you use switch #5, after saving everything make sure you pull the card and put switch 5 back otherwise it will forget what you just configured. Total control manager is used to check the enabling go to configure / program settings / added cost features I am unsure about arc configurations as we don't use them. eric
Thanks - in advance - for any help.
