Please log in for more thread options I've Googled my head-off in looking for a way to get into this switch via the serial console, and found the usual "secure/secure" and "user/ user" combo. I can get in via read-only by "user/user" however, I still don't have a writable username and password combo. I've also tried the "NetISc" attempt to no avail. Does anyone have a solution that doesn't involve shelling out $300 per incident to Nortel over a router I only paid $15 for? If not, this doesn't bode well for my further purchasing decisions for my company over Nortel hardware. | ||||||||||||||||

Please log in for more thread options After trying most of the usual responses from the 'net -- and a few responses from individuals -- I'm still no closer to being able to use my switch. I've attempted to contact Nortel, and their menu tree is obnoxious! I'm even willing to pay for a $50 support contract to get this switch working and configured. After contacting more than quite a few of my local resellers, nobody even has a clue how to go about this. I know that this is a legacy switch, but it's still a little disappointing that someone *somewhere* doesn't have a clue how to get the translated MAC address password or a backdoor.

Then, you can use "i" to clear configuration in flash (reset everything even password). Does this cost $50 if it works? ha... | ||||||||||||||||

Unfortunately, the unit will not let me send a Cntrl+C during the POST and break into the menu. I've tried sending a break command as well -- no dice. 9600, 8/N/1, minicom linux. I can get the login screen however.. | ||||||||||||||||
