[nsr88nsr69225]

hello guys, 

I have installed a FTD image on the Cisco ASA 5506-X K9 and now I have forgotten the admin password, therefore I can not log into the system at all. 

I have done all these just for exercises. 

could anyone help me please?

thank you guys.

Hi @nsr88nsr69225,

If you lost admin password, and there is no other user created, then you have to reimage device, which is basicaly full reinstalation of software on the device. You can find a procedure how to do that here. Good thing is that you can use this process to install newer software release, if relevant to you.

BR,
