A. There are two ways to recover an installer password. The first method is to establish an SNMP session to the unit in question, and set the ResetFactoryDefaultComplete variable to 1. Then reset the unit, and the installer password will return to user. The second ways is to establish a read only monitor session to the unit, set the unit into technician mode, and then execute a complete reset to factory defaults. Power the unit down, and restore power, and the unit will have an installer password of user.
