Reset cisco router 2500 series

Kantor untuk meningkatkan speed koneksi internet memutuskan membeli cisco second series 2500, cari sana-sini akhirnya dapat.Tapi ada satu masalah, penjualnya lupa passwordnya.Akhirnya dengan harga miring,tetep dibeli, dengan keyakinan pasti ada cara resetnya.Ternyata berbeda cara untuk mereset router cisco di tiap seriesnya. Sempat kebingungan ,setelah browse sana sini akhirnya ketemu juga caranya.

berikut ini caranya :

Sebelumnya kita harus tau combinasi untuk masuk ke flas-nya cisco, yang umum memakai kombinasi Ctrl-Break, kalo tidak bisa coba liat disini
dan juga yang penting kabel terminal untuk menghubungkan Cisco dan PC, yaitu kabel RJ-45, untuk lengkapnya liatdisini
setelah semua sudah terpenuhi ;

Step-by-Step Procedure

Complete these steps to recover a lost or forgotten password:

1. Hubungkan Cisco ke PC memakai Hyper terminal *start-Accesories-Comunications-klik hyper terminal*, gunakan aturan ini:

9600 baud rate
No parity
8 data bits
1 stop bit
No flow control
2. Matikan power off cisco dan kemudian hidupkan lagi
3. Berikan perintah dengan kombinasi ctrl-Break *kalo gk bisa coba kombinasi lainnya,liat disini, perintah ini untuk masuk ke ROMmon, biasanya setelah 60 detik dari power on
4. Type o and press ENTER at the > prompt, and record the current value of the configuration register (usually 0x2102, or 0x102):

>o

!--- Shows the configuration register option settings.


Configuration register = 0x2102 at last boot
Bit# Configuration register option settings:
15 Diagnostic mode disabled

!--- Output supressed.

5.Type o/r 0x2142 and press ENTER at the > prompt to boot from Flash without loading the configuration.
6. Type i at the > prompt and press ENTER.

The router reboots, but ignores its saved configuration.
7. Type no after each setup question or press CTRL + C to skip the initial setup procedure.
8. Type enable at the Router> prompt.

You will be in enable mode, and see the Router# prompt.
9. Type configure memory or copy startup-config running-config to copy the NVRAM into memory. Do not type write memory or copy running startup-config.
10. Type write terminal or show running-config.

The show running-config and write terminal commands show the configuration of the router. In this configuration you see under all the interfaces the shutdown command, which means all interfaces are currently shutdown. Also, you can see the passwords either in encrypted or unencrypted format.
11. Type configure terminal and make the changes.

The prompt is now:

hostname(config)#

12. Type enable secret to change the enable secret password, for example..
13. Issue the no shutdown command on every interface that is used. If you issue a show ip interface brief command after you exit configuration mode, every interface that you want to use should be "up up".
14. Type config-register 0x2102, or the value you recorded in step 4.

This causes the router to load the Cisco IOS software from the Flash with the configuration from NVRAM at the next reload.
15. Press CTRL + Z to leave the configuration mode.

The prompt is now:

hostname#

16. Type write memory or copy running-config startup-config to commit the changes.
17. Type Reload to restart the router with the Cisco IOS software booting from the Flash.

Sample Output

The example below presents an actual password recovery procedure. We created this example using a Cisco 2500 series router. Even if you do not use a Cisco 2500, the example shown here will be almost similar to what you experience on your product.

!--- Press ENTER.

1278 bytes copied in 10.448 secs (127 bytes/sec)

Note: After you copy the configuration file from NVRAM to RAM, based on how the password is last configured, you can:

* Either perform a password recovery, if the enable password is configured (which is in plain text format).
* Or, perform a password replacement, if the enable secret password is configured (which is in encrypted format).

Note: To check the format in which the password is configured on the router, use the show running-config command, and look for enable password or enable secret password in the configuration.

Example for Enable Password Recovery

The following show running-config output shows that enable password is configured. Password recovery can be done as shown below:

Router#show running-config

!--- This command can be used to view the unencrypted password.

Building configuration...

Current configuration : 431 bytes
!
version 12.2
service timestamps debug uptime
service timestamps log uptime
no service password-encryption
!
hostname Router
!
enable password XxXxXx

!--- Here the Password is plain clear text. We can either maintain
!--- the same password or replace with a new password for security reasons.

!--- Output Suppressed.

Example for Password Replacement

The following output from a show running-config shows that the enable secret password is configured. As a result, password replacement can be performed as shown below:

Router#show running-config
Building configuration...
Current configuration : 835 bytes
!
version 12.2
service timestamps debug uptime
service timestamps log uptime
no service password-encryption
!
hostname Router
!
enable secret 5 $1$Oea234/6Ppi0PZYzAj/vX0


!--- Password replacement has to be done as the password is in encrypted format.

!--- Output suppressed.

Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
Router(config)#enable secret xxxxxxx
Router(config)#
00:03:39: %SYS-5-CONFIG_I: Configured from console by console

When the password recovery or replacement is done, the remaining steps are the same, as shown below:

[OK]

After you have recovered or replaced the password we have to reset the Configuration register value to 0x2102, which was earlier changed to 0x2142 to ignore the Start-up configuration, and to boot the Router. You can verify the configuration register value. To do so, issue the show version command.

The show version command shows the current value (0x2142), and the value that will be effective after the next reload (0x2102).
