Hello,
I am looking to find a way to be able to generate a password hash that Cisco uses in their UC Answer File Generator. I ran through the answer file generator and created my set of platformConfig.xml files required to build a cluster. Going forward I would like to just run a search and replace on a couple of variables (hostname, password, ...) when deploying a new customer without having to key in all the information back into Cisco's answer file generator. This works and I am using it today however I am unable to change the password fields due to the hash and have to manually change them through the CLI afterwards.
Does anyone know how the hash is generated? Is it possible to use a third party tool to generate this hash so that I can insert it into the platformConfig.xml file?
Here is an example of the hash:
<LocalHostAdminPwCrypt>
<ParamNameText>Admin PW for this node</ParamNameText>
<ParamDefaultValue>password</ParamDefaultValue>
<ParamValue>1AFC15B0B20EC1EE831812812AB2825C831812812AB2825C831812812AB2825C</ParamValue>
</LocalHostAdminPwCrypt>
Thanks,
Marc
