Introduction

Have you ever forgotten the switch passwords? Have you ever failed to log in to your switch because of a lost login password?

This document describes how to clear the old password or set a new password when you forget the console port login password, STelnet/Telnet login password, BootROM/BootLoad password, or web login password. This ensures that you can log in to your switch even when you forget these passwords.

For details about how to log in to a switch, see Switches Typical Login Configuration Examples.

Prerequisites

This document uses S series switches of V200R020C00 as an example to describe how to clear the old password or set a new password. The operations to be performed may vary depending on the device model and version. For details, see the corresponding product documentation.

This document is written based on device information obtained under lab conditions. If your device is running on the live network, ensure that you understand the potential impact of all commands.

Scenario 1: All Default Passwords Are Changed and All Passwords Are Forgotten

If you change all default passwords and forget the console port login password, all STelnet/Telnet login accounts and passwords, and BootROM/BootLoad passwords:

• For a switch that has the PNP button, you can press and hold the PNP button for more than 6 seconds to restore the switch to factory settings and restart the switch. The following figure shows the PNP button.
• If the switch does not have the PNP button, return it to the factory for repair.

  Figure 1-1 PNP button
  

For details about mandatory configurations of the switch after factory settings are restored, see Restoring the Factory Settings of S5700 Series Switches.

After factory settings are restored, all configuration data is deleted and cannot be restored. Therefore, exercise caution when restoring the factory settings of the switch.

Scenario 2: Default Passwords Are Forgotten

For S series switches running V200R020 and later versions, no passwords are configured for default accounts, and users must configure new passwords for logging in to the switches. In this situation, scenario 2 is not involved.

However, for S series switches running versions earlier than V200R020, there is no default STelnet/Telnet login password, but there are default console port login password, default BootROM/BootLoad password, and default web login password. These default passwords may vary according to the switch version.

If you always use the default passwords and have not changed the passwords, you can obtain the default accounts and passwords according to S Series Switches Default Usernames and Passwords (for enterprise users or carrier users). The permission level of this document is C (customer support level). If you need to upgrade the permission level, see the help document on the website.

To ensure device security, you are advised not to use the default passwords and to change the passwords periodically.

Scenario 3: The Console Port Login Password Is Forgotten

Three methods are available to recover the console port login password.

• Method 1: Log in to the device using STelnet or Telnet and change the console port login password.
• Method 2: Clear the console port login password in the BootROM/BootLoad menu and change the console port login password.

Method 1 is recommended. Use method 2 if you also forget the STelnet or Telnet login password. STelnet V2 is recommended because it is more secure than Telnet.

Method 1: Log in to the device using STelnet or Telnet and change the console port login password.

If you have an STelnet or Telnet account and administrator permissions, you can log in to the device through STelnet or Telnet, change the console port login password, and save the configuration.

The following describes how to change the console port login password after logging in to the device using STelnet.

1. Use the STelnet account to log in to the device and ensure that the account has a privilege level of 3 or higher.

   Run the display users command to check all the users who have logged in to the device. The line marked with a plus sign (+) indicates the current user. Record the User-Intf field value (VTY1).

    display users 
     User-Intf    Delay    Type   Network Address     AuthenStatus    AuthorcmdFlag 
     129 VTY 0   00:23:36  TEL    10.135.18.67              pass           no        Username : Unspecified 
    
   + 130 VTY 1   01:20:36  SSH    10.135.18.91              pass           no        Username : Unspecified 
    
     131 VTY 2   00:00:00  TEL    10.135.18.54              pass           no        Username : Unspecified

   Run the display user-interface command to check the permissions of all users. The command output shows that the privilege level of VTY1 is 15, which has the right to change the console port login password.

    display user-interface 
     Idx  Type     Tx/Rx      Modem Privi ActualPrivi Auth  Int 
     0    CON 0    9600       -     15    -           P     - 
   + 129  VTY 0               -     15    15          P     - 
   + 130  VTY 1               -     15    15          P     - 
   + 131  VTY 2               -     15    -           P     - 
     132  VTY 3               -     15    15          P     - 
   ......

2. Change the console port login password.
   • The following example changes the authentication mode to password authentication and the password to test@123.

      system-view 
     [HUAWEI] user-interface console 0 
     [HUAWEI-ui-console0] authentication-mode password 
     [HUAWEI-ui-console0] set authentication password cipher test@123
     [HUAWEI-ui-console0] return

   • The following example changes the authentication mode to AAA authentication, user name to admin123, and password to test@123.

      system-view 
     [HUAWEI] user-interface console 0 
     [HUAWEI-ui-console0] authentication-mode aaa
     [HUAWEI-ui-console0] quit
     [HUAWEI] aaa
     [HUAWEI-aaa] local-user admin123 password irreversible-cipher test@123
     [HUAWEI-aaa] local-user admin123 service-type terminal
     [HUAWEI-aaa] return

3. To prevent configuration loss after a device restart, save the device configuration.

    save 
   The current configuration will be written to the device. 
   Are you sure to continue?[Y/N]y 
   Now saving the current configuration to the slot 0. 
   Save the configuration successfully.

Method 2: Clear the console port login password in the BootROM/BootLoad menu and change the console port login password.

If you remember the BootROM/BootLoad password and can access the BootROM/BootLoad menu, clear the console port login password in the BootROM/BootLoad menu, set a new console port login password after the device restarts, and save the configuration.

• To access the BootROM/BootLoad menu, you need to restart the device. You can power off and then power on the device to restart it. This operation, however, will interrupt services and may cause the loss of configuration and data. Perform this operation during off-peak hours. Do not power off the device when the device starts.

• For a modular switch with dual MPUs, remove the standby MPU before restarting the switch. Perform the following operations, install the standby MPU and run the save command to ensure that the configurations on the active and standby MPUs are the same.

• If multiple switches are stacked, power off these member switches. Perform the following operations on the master switch, and run the save command to ensure that the configurations on the master switch can be synchronized to other member switches after other member switches start up.

• If there is no COM port (DB9 serial port) on your maintenance terminal (PC), purchase a DB9-to-USB cable to connect the USB port to the maintenance terminal.

Perform the following operations.

1. Connect the PC to the switch through the console port on the switch. Connect the DB9 female connector of the console cable to the COM port on the PC, and connect the RJ45 connector to the console port on the switch, as shown in Figure 1-2.

   Figure 1-2 Connecting a PC to the switch through the console port on the switch
   

2. Start the terminal emulation software on the PC. Create a connection, select the connection port, and set communication parameters:
   • Baud rate: 9600
   • Data bits: 8
   • Stop bits: 1
   • Parity: None
   • Flow control: None
3. Restart the switch. When the following message is displayed, press Ctrl+B or Ctrl+E immediately and enter the password to enter the BootROM/BootLoad menu.

   Press Ctrl+B or Ctrl+E to enter BootROM/BootLoad menu ... 2
   password:      //Enter the BootROM/BootLoad password.

   • The output varies according to the device and version. Therefore, the output on your device may be different from that provided in this example.
   • If you have not changed the default BootROM/BootLoad password, enter the default password to access the BootROM/BootLoad main menu. You can obtain the default accounts and passwords according to S Series Switches Default Usernames and Passwords (for enterprise users or carrier users). The permission level of this document is C (customer support level). If you need to upgrade the permission level, see the help document on the website.

4. Select Clear password for console user on the BootROM/BootLoad menu to clear the console port login password.
5. Select Boot with default mode on the BootROM/BootLoad menu to start the switch as prompted.

   Do not select Reboot; otherwise, the password cannot be cleared.

6. After the switch starts, authentication is not required when you log in to the switch through the console port. Set a password as prompted after the login. In V200R009 and later versions, after the switch starts up, the authentication mode for a console port login is non-authentication, and the system does not ask you to configure an authentication password.
7. After logging in to the switch, set an authentication mode and password for the console user interface according to service requirements. For details about how to change the console port login password, see Step 2 in Method 1.
8. To prevent configuration loss after a device restart, save the device configuration.

    save 
   The current configuration will be written to the device. 
   Are you sure to continue?[Y/N]y 
   Now saving the current configuration to the slot 0. 
   Save the configuration successfully.

Scenario 4: The STelnet/Telnet Login Password Is Forgotten

• If you forget the login password of an STelnet/Telnet account, you can use another STelnet/Telnet account with administrator rights to log in to the device and reset the password. For details, see Method 1.
• If you forget the passwords of all STelnet/Telnet accounts but can log in to the device through the console port, see Method 2.

Method 1: Use an STelnet/Telnet Account with Administrator Rights to Log In to the Device and Reset the Password

1. Log in to the switch using the STelnet/Telnet account with administrator rights.
2. Change the STelnet/Telnet login password. The following example describes how to change the STelnet/Telnet login password of VTY0 to VTY4.

   Table 1-1 Changing the STelnet/Telnet login password

   Set the STelnet login authentication mode to ECC authentication (similar to RSA or DSA authentication), user name to admin123, password to abcd@123, and user privilege level to 15. If the user name is the original one, you can reset the password of the original login account. If the user name is a new one, you can configure a new STelnet login account. The configuration methods in the two scenarios are the same. To use ECC authentication, you need to configure the public key of the SSH client on the SSH server. When the SSH client connects to the SSH server, the SSH client passes the authentication if the private key of the client matches the configured public key. For details about the public key on the SSH client, see the help document of the SSH client software.	system-view [HUAWEI] user-interface vty 0 4 [HUAWEI-ui-vty0-4] protocol inbound ssh //By default, switches running V200R006 and earlier versions use Telnet and need to have this command configured.

Scenario 6: The Web Login Password Is Forgotten but the Console Port/STelnet/Telnet Login Is Available

If you can log in to the switch through the console port, STelnet, or Telnet, log in to the switch and reset the web login password. In the following example, the web login user name is admin123 and the password is test@123.

 system-view

 save

Scenario 7: The Web Login Password Is Forgotten (Applicable Only to Switches That Can Be Configured Only Through the Web System but Not the CLI, Such As S200 and Some S1700 Switches)

For a switch that can be configured only through the web system but not the CLI, if you forget the web login password, restore the factory settings of the switch and reset the password.

The procedure is as follows:

1. Use a network cable to connect a PC to the device, and configure a static IP address for the PC. The static IP address of the PC and the default IP address (192.168.1.253) of the device must be on the same network segment.
2. The device has an RST button. You can press and hold this button for more than 6 seconds to restore the factory settings and restart the device.
