To reset the device password, proceed as follows:
1. Make sure that the CPU LED is solid green, indicating that the device is fully functional.
2. Then press-and-hold the Reset button
for a minimum of 5 seconds. This resets the password
to its default setting.
3. Logon to device management. You can now logon to the device via the Console port and assign
a new password using the command line interface (CLI). To access device management from
your local pc, terminal, or modem connection, proceed as follows:
a. Enter rw (Read-Write) for Username.
b. At the Password prompt, press ENTER (RETURN).
For details on how to enter a new password using the command line interface, refer to the Matrix C
Series Configuration Guide. The CLI commands enable you to initially set up and perform more
involved switch management configurations.
