Pulling the config off a 2810

  • 1.  Pulling the config off a 2810

    Posted Aug 08, 2011 12:03 PM

    We just took over a facility where the I.T. left quite a while ago.  He left a log off all the equipment passwords, but we just noticed he never documented the credentials to access the e2810 switch.  No one can find him, so now we are stuck.  We can't just do a reset, because we don't have the current config table.  Is there any way to pull the configuration off of a Procurve e2810 without the admin credentials?


    #configuration
    #e2810

    If he did not block the front panel button in the config, just press the clear buttopn on the switch and it will erase the configured manager and oparator passwords.

    Thank you, Patrick!

     

    To your knowledge, this will ONLY reset the passwords?  Not the config?
