Resetting a PIX 506 password

To perform a password recovery:


You will need to download TFTP Server from the following link:
http://tftpd32.jounin.net/


Download the file np63.bin version at:

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/vpndevc/
ps2030/products_password_recovery09186a008009478b.shtml#pix_without

1. Open the TFTP program
2. Install a serial terminal or a PC with terminal emulation software on the PIX console port.
3. Verify that you have a connection with the PIX, and that characters are going from the terminal to the PIX, and from the PIX to the terminal.
Note: Because you are locked out, you will see only a password prompt.
4. Immediately after you power on the PIX Firewall and the startup messages appear, send a BREAK character or press the ESC key. The monitor> prompt is displayed. If needed, type ? (question mark) to list the available commands.
5. Use the interface command to specify which interface the ping traffic should use.
6. Use the address command to specify the IP address of the PIX Firewall's interface.
7. Use the server command to specify the IP address of the remote TFTP server containing the PIX password recovery file.
8. Use the file command to specify the filename of the PIX password recovery file. For example, the 5.1 release uses a file named np63.bin.
9. If needed, enter the gateway command to specify the IP address of a router gateway through which the server is accessible.
10. If needed, use the ping command to verify accessibility. If this command fails, fix access to the server before continuing.
11. Use the tftp command to start the download.
12. As the password recovery file loads, the following message is displayed:
Do you wish to erase the passwords? [yn] y
Passwords have been erased.
13. The default Telnet password after this process is "cisco." There is no default enable password. Go into configuration mode and issue the passwd your_password command to change your Telnet password and the enable password your_enable_password command to create an enable password, and then save your configuration.

Example:
monitor> interface 0
0: i8255X @ PCI(bus:0 dev:13 irq:10)
1: i8255X @ PCI(bus:0 dev:14 irq:7 )
