Router Operation

Resetting the Router, Clearing the Passwords, and Clearing the Router

To Clear the Manager and User Passwords

Use a non-conducting, pointed implement such as a wooden pencil or a toothpick to press and release the recessed Clear button. (Refer to figure 2-9 on page 2-14.)

Access to the router will no longer be limited by a password. The Clear button removes all constraints on access by anyone using the console, Telnet, TFTP, or a network manager.

To set a new password, use the Network Control Language (NCL) Password command on the console. For information on setting passwords, refer to “Set Manager and User Passwords” (page 1-34).
