Ethernet SNMP Module Installation and Reference Guide ( J2603B) 1995-10

Clearing a Password

There is a Password Clear button on the HP Ethernet SNMP Module that

is accessed through a hole in the hub’s Expansion Slot cover plate. If an

auxiliary module has been installed and that module was supplied with a

cover plate, additional holes may exist in that cover plate. The HP Ethernet

SNMP Module’s Password Clear button is behind the unlabeled hole toward

the bottom of the plate.

You can use this button to clear a forgotten password that was previously

configured on the hub. The password is configured from either HP Stack

Manager or HP Interconnect Manager.

To clear the password, press and hold the button for approximately five

seconds.

As an indication that the password has been cleared, the Security LED on

the front of the hub will come on and stay on until the button is released.

Note After the password has been cleared, access to the hub from the

HP Stack Manager and from SNMP management stations will no longer

be password protected. A new password can be assigned from either

HP Stack Manager or HP Interconnect Manager.
