NCS540X IOS-XR Procedure for PW-Recovery or factory-reset

[HUBERT RESCH]

Hi we have few NCS540X which were deployed in a POC before, and we do not know the credentials for these boxes.

I am looking for a easy procedure for PW-recovery or/and factory-reset, but could not find a documented working solution.

Thx in Advance
Hubert
