you need to restore a bay 450 switch? unknown password - ain't it a *****? now you want to try to have help to get by all i can say is nice try is nice try.
passwords were made just for onething so that evil folks wouldn't sting shouldn't go where you don't belong it's really a sorry song crackin' the password crackin' the password, crackin' the password.
by now you must realize, no matter how you tries that the tears in your eyes, mean you need lots more tries but it won't work will it guys? better yet - just pack it up, just pack it up just pack it up
I don't know the details of this for Bay/Nortel, but you can certainly do this with Cisco. Their CCO website has the procedures all lined out. The procedure assumes that you have physical access to the box, and can plugin to the console port.
I have to assume that Bay/Nortel have a similar functionality. I don't know what that may be, but your support contract should certainly allow you to access that info through the TSC.
If you're asking for technical help, please be sure to include all your system info, including operating system, model number, and any other specifics related to the problem. Also please exercise your best judgment when posting in the forums--revealing personal information such as your e-mail address, telephone number, and address is not recommended.
All network gurus please respond
