Cisco IDS 4215 password recovery problem

Asked by tedsini in Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS), Networking Hardware Firewalls

Tags: cisco, password, ids, 4215, recovery

Hi,  I have a Cisco IDS 4215 with no password and no CD.  Can I recover the password for this device, or can I clear the configuration and set a new password?   The only prompt I get on bootup is the "login:" prompt; then, whatever I enter brings me to the "password:" prompt.  The information on the Cisco site lists the "hw-module"  command, but this assumes that you can get to a valid prompt.  Thanks.Start Free Trial
