Cisco 7609 - Enable Password Unable to Break.

[Akhileshpk_2]

Hi all,

Cisco 7609 Router, Enable password unable to reset.

Many times CTRL+BREAK Key combination while booting the router does not takes the console to ROMMON.

Router boots using the IOS image in the bootdisk0: (For entering into the ROMMON, removed both the external Flash disks also - no use)

2 or three time in a day it enters in to the ROMMON while pressing CTRL+BREAK.

Tried in the ROMMON (one Sup is removed) with confreg 0x2142 followed by reset/boot commands, the router is booting with the startup config.

Any work around will be appreciated.!!!

Thanks and Regards

Hi,

This issue is resolved by pressing the ESC key while booting, which will takes you to RP mode. (Removed one RP)

Router-sp>

Router-sp>enable

Router-sp# erase nvram

Router-sp#reload

The solution may help you in the future!! 

Thanks and Regards
