Hi Biswajeet, This is the URL for the Password Recovery Procedure. http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/474/pswdrec_2500.html#proc
( I am not sure the above link will be useful or not, as the password recovery procedure for 2600 routers are not available from CISCO website) But suggest go thru the following tips. The tips are 9600 baud rate No parity 8 data bits 1 stop bit No flow control II tip (This worked for me) This is useful if your terminal emulator doesn't support the break key, or if a bug prevents it from sending the correct signal (the hyperterminal under Windows NT used to suffer from this behavior): Connect to the router with the following terminal settings: 1200 baud rate No parity 8 data bits 1 stop bit No flow control You no longer see any output on your screen. This is normal. Power cycle (switch off and then on) the router and press the spacebar for 10-15 seconds. This generates a signal similar to the break sequence. Disconnect your terminal and reconnect with a 9600 baud rate. You should now be in ROM Monitor mode. For the keyboard combinations are - depending on Operating System follow this link and let me know if this is of some help. http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/701/61.html#break-key Good luck Raocisco [EMAIL PROTECTED] M.
