Delete User without Password

[kvon12]

Good morning,

On a ICX 7750 stack running Version:08.0.95gT241 we have a user that we dont know the password for. Is there a way for me to delete this user without that users password? This user is from a previous network admin and we need it gone for security purposes. 

Thanks

Hi!

Thank you for posting your question. Here we can have 2 scenarios.

1. The log in credentials are not working and we need to reset them, try these steps:

2. If you do have access to the switch CLI and only need to delete the user and its password, check this guide:

https://docs.commscope.com/bundle/fastiron-08095-commandref/page/GUID-56993390-C837-456A-955B-ECB1A4...

Steps:

*Check which user needs to be deleted using this command # show run | inc user

*From global configuration level, enter this command to delete #no username {here enter the name of the user we want to delete}

*Finally, save changes with #write memory

I hope that works!
