Hi All

Our service provider has left and we need to make urgent changes to the UC - does anyone know the admin password recovery for the US540 ?

Hi Nuno,

You will need CLI access to the UC540 for this. I'm assuming that it has a password, and that you don't know what it is. If you have the password, skip password recovery step.

First, to recover/set a new password, during boot you need to send a break within 60 seconds which will take you to Rommon.

At Rommon 1> type confreg 0x2142

At Rommon 2> type reset. Type no after each set up question.

When it boots, you'll want to erase cue (voicemail) first. Session into CUE with: service-module integrated-service-engine 0/0 session and hit enter twice. Type offline, then y when asked to confirm. Type restore factory default, and again y when asked to confirm, and press enter to reload. It can take 5-10 mins, and you will know its complete when it says system online.

Then to factory default the UC/CME, type exit to get out of CUE. At the prompt (which should still end in a #, if not, type enable to go from > to #) type show flash: Show more, and probably down at the bottom of the list you'll see something like UC540-xxxxxxx-k9-FACTORY-xxx-.cfg This is the factory config file (don't save to it!)  Make note of this filename, I will refer to it as (but make sure you include the name and .cfg).  Type copy flash: startup. Reboot, you should be running with a factory defaulted UC540.

Best,

Charles
