Need to reset password on Alteon 180

Oct 23, 2007 1 Replies

I have two Alteon 180 switches that I need to recover the password. I misplaced my Alteon software and I am looking for any suggestions on how I can recover the passwords. I believe the process is to use a binary file uploaded over the serial port. I tried the Nortel site using a valid support account but no longer have access to software for the Alteon 180. Here are the versions installed on the switches -



ACEswitch 180 Version 8.0.49



Alteon 180 ACEswitch 180 Version 6.0.69



Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!



You still can get 8.0.49 on Nortel website once you set the search filter to "All Status".
