Hi,

I have installed a new cisco2901 router and configured the line vty 0 4 and console 0 and enable secret.

But unfortunately I exit from the configuration and while going to login in again.  I cannot login with username and password which is configured.

Unable to recover the password through Break command.  Please suggest me how to recover the password.  Its very urgent.

Thanks

It's a protective cover to prevent people from snapping off the eject lever.

So you remove the cap/cover and you should be OK to eject the CF.

Hi,

Router is configured with the following command lines.

line vty 0 4

login local

password XXXXX

line console 0

login local

password XXXX

saved

as the login is configured with local so we need to creat a local user and password for this to log in.  But by mistake my engineer did not configure the local username and password.  So we cannot login again to the router because of unavailabiliyt of local user and password. 

Could you please suggest in this case how to login into the router.

username BLAH password 7 BLING
