I recently got one of the devices mentioned in the subject.
Of course I don't know the admin password (which is identical
to the SNMP community string). On FC devices which I got
earlier the password reset was more or less straight forward.
On this one, however, I can't get a grip on it.
The methods found on the net either don't work on this device
or are in fact for another type.
To login into the serial console, where you can reset the password,
you need, who guessed it, the password.
This thing runs a version of VxWorks.
I can access the bootloader where you can read or write by memory
address, or you can download or upload a firmware image to flash, and
do some other stuff, like editing the boot command line.
Is there a chance that a firmware flash will reset it to default values?
I have my doubts about it, most likely the config data is stored in another
region of flash memory, or somewhere else...
Any ideas anyone?
