Clear Login Information

If you are unable to perform an administrator login (because the username and

password information has become corrupted or you have forgotten it, for

example) you can clear the login information with the following procedure.

Note: Performing this procedure also returns all settings to their defaults.

To clear the login information (and return all settings to their defaults), do the

following:

1. Power off the Serial Console Server and remove its housing.

2. Use a jumper cap to short the mainboard jumper labeled J11/J18 (for

SN0132CO/SN0148CO as shown in the diagram below) or J17/J18 (for

SN9108CO/SN9116CO/SN0108CO/SN0116CO).

3. Power on the Serial Console Server.

4. When the unit starts beeping, power off the Serial Console Server.

5. Remove the jumper cap from J11/J18 (SN0132CO/SN0148CO) or J17/

J18 (SN9108CO/SN9116CO/SN0108CO/SN0116CO).

6. Close the housing and start the Serial Console Server.

After powering on the unit, you can use the default super administrator

username and password (see First Time Setup, page 33) to log in.

The system will force you to change the password as you log in for the

first time after performing this procedure.
