You may want to investigate Cisco's Security Device Manager Documentation:

Thanks for the link about the documentation - but since the only way to access the router is by console cable, and it's asking for username all the time (I dont't have a username!!!) I can't access the router and do all this fancy commands that are described in the documentation. I'm looking for some way of doing factory reset or something, so that the username and password will turn back into default. Perhaps it is described in the link - but I sure can't find it. :-(

The thing is - I can't reset it since I can't access the router. Its' only asking for username...username....username....username....forever and ever.... and I have not set a username - the default is cisco/cisco
- but i wrote "no username cisco" at the prompt and now I just can't access it. Not by telnet, by web, by console ....
Hm..now I have managed to find a password recovery document which has fixed my problem! Problem solved! Thanks for your help anyway :-)
