So how do we recover a lost or forgotten password on a 3560 switch? There are two options: One, when password recovery is enabled and one when it’s disabled. In our example we have a default configuration where password recovery is permitted. So we need to connect to the console of the device. Now in packet tracer we can either do that by dragging a PC into the topology and then connecting it via a console cable. So I could connect to the console of the switch and have a look. At the switch directly through the console password here is unknown. I’m not going to do it that way. I’m simply going to click on the device which gives me a console connection anyway. But please be aware that in the real world, you need to physically connect a PC to the console of your switch or router when doing password recovery. Now the next step is to make sure that you’re using 9,600 bits per second in your terminal emulation software, that’s the default in packet tracer. We need to power the off the switch and then reconnect the power cord and then within 15 seconds press the mode button while the system LED is still flashing green. Continue pressing the mode button until the system LED turns briefly amber and then solid green and then release the mode button. Now in my example, I can’t physically unplug the power through packet tracer. So I’m going to power cycle the devices that power cycles all the devices but I’ve already reset the configuration of my routers so that’s fine. I’m going to press the mode button on the switch which then allows me to access ROM on under the switch. And now some tips, if that doesn’t work, power cycle device and then click the mode button two or three times, to get packet tracer to take you to ROM m ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IwUlnxvTUU8
