If none of the above passwords work, you will need to use these steps to reset the switch password:

Password recovery for Fabric OS v2.x and v3.x

To reset the passwords on a Fabric OS v2..x and v3.x switch using the Password Recovery firmware (you must obtain this by contacting Brocade Support and supplying them with the S/N and/or WWN of the switch:

1. Copy the Password Recovery firmware to a host that is accessible to the switch; either an FTP server or a laptop (running an FTP server) directly connected to the ethernet port. You must use either FTP or RSHD to copy the firmware. If FTP is used, the password cannot be blank.

2. Connect to the console port.

3. Power the switch off and back on.

4. Set the boot parameters on your switch to perform a netboot:

a. At the “[VxWorks Boot]” prompt for the switch, enter c.

b. Type the requested information at the prompts. To accept the default value for a parameter, press Enter.
The parameters are defined as follows.

Press any key to stop auto-boot...

6. Turn off the switch and turn on again.

7. Press any key when you see the message “Press any key to stop autoboot…” This provides access to the boot prompt.

8. Set the switch to boot from the flash again:
a. At the [VxWorks Boot] prompt, type c to begin resetting the boot parameters to the default settings.
b. Remove the values that you added by typing a period (.) after each parameter, then pressing Enter. The boot parameters are returned to the default settings.

9. Turn off the switch and turn on again to reload the original firmware from flash. The switch resumes normal operation.

10. Log in to the switch by telnet or serial as root, and set new passwords for all accounts.
