Is there any way to recover or reset enable secret password by using telnet or SSH. Site is far from my location and there is no technician to help. Thanks.

I believe there is an option to change the enable password with SNMP, if you have enabled a read-write SNMP community in the device.

I have never tried this though.

There is no SNMP enabled.

hi,

reading the link for recovery via SNMP looks troublesome.

personally, i would recommend to just have an onsite tech (or yourself) do the password recovery process.
