NETW 203 Lab 11.4.2.8 (Devry)


NETW 203 Lab 11.4.2.8 (Devry)
Objectives
Part 1: Research the Configuration Register
• Identify the purpose of the configuration register.
• Describe router behavior for different configuration register values.
Part 2: Document the Password Recovery Procedure for a Specific Cisco Router
• Research and record the process for password recovery on a specific Cisco router.
• Answer questions based on the researched procedure.
Background / Scenario
The purpose of this lab is to research the procedure for recovering or resetting the enable password on a specific Cisco router. The enable password protects access to privileged EXEC and configuration mode on Cisco devices. The enable password can be recovered, but the enable secret password is encrypted and would need to be replaced with a new password.
In order to bypass a password, a user must be familiar with the ROM monitor (ROMMON) mode, as well as the configuration register setting for Cisco routers. ROMMON is basic CLI software stored in ROM that can be used to troubleshoot boot errors and recover a router when an IOS is not found.
In this lab, you will begin by researching the purpose and settings of the configuration register for Cisco devices. You will then research and detail the exact procedure for password recovery for a specific Cisco router.
