Connection error 0x2102 - Copystar Kyocera Taskalfa 181 Copier

Need help to recover the forgotten password of your Cisco router? The following guide will help you restore the password without losing your router configuration. To retrieve the password, you will require rebooting your router many times. It means stoppage, but it is the best step to reset the password. At first, you need to connect the first end of the standard light blue cable to the power port and the other end to the 'Console' port on the back of your router. After connecting the devices, you need to make a serial connection to the router. For that, you need the following settings:

Baud: 9600
Parity: No
Data bits: 8
Stop bits: 1
Flow Control: None

To recover the Cisco router password, check the following steps:-

1.Restart your Cisco router and press the 'Break' key to conflict the boot order. Input config 0x2142. It conveys the router to avoid NVRAM in the boot process. It won't load your current configuration.

2.Enter reset to restart your router. When asked to run the setup process, choose 'No.' Enter 'Copy Start, Run.' It loads the beginning setup into memory.

3.Now, if you enter the 'Show Run Config,' it will show you the router settings. Also, you should consider that the router name is in the prompt rather than the default 'Router.'

4.Type the 'enable secret new password' to change the enabled secret, and then enter the 'config-register 0x2102' to modify the registry settings back to 0x2102.

5.Once your router restarts, it will load the old settings along with the new password. Now, you need to save it so that it will continue during restarts.

6.Enter copy run start. Type Reload at the prompt to reboot the Cisco router.

Now, note down the password to keep them safe. However, if the steps as given above fail to recover the Cisco router password without losing the configuration or you need the help of experts, you can call on the genuine Cisco customer care number listed on the Contactforhelp to get the direct support of experts for recovering the password quickly.

Hi,

Depending on the Supervisor Module model, most likely it's a standard Cisco's "password recovery procedure":

Connect to the console
Reboot the switch (power cycle)
Start pressing Ctrl-C till you get to the BOOTROM
Change boot configuration register to 0x2142 (confreg 0x2142)
Boot the switch. It will ignore confuguration and boot "empty".
Go to "enable mode".
Copy startup configuration to running configuration ("copy start run")
Change boot register back to 0x2102 (conf t -> conf 0x2102)
Write config (write mem)
Reboot

Good luck,

There are two main methods to return a Cisco router to its original factory defaults. These two methods are described below.
Method 1
1. uses the config-register 0x2102 command in global configuration mode.
2. Check the configuration register on the router by issuing the show version command.
3. The configuration register setting is displayed in the last line of the show version command output and should be set to 0x2102. If this is not the case, enter the config-register 0x2102 command once in global configuration mode.
router#configure terminal
router(config)#config-register 0x2102
router(config)#end
router#
4. If the show version command is issued again, the same line in the command output will have '(will be 0x2102 at next reload)' appended to the current register setting.
5. Erase the current start-up configuration on the router with the write erase command.
Reload the router with the reload command. When prompted to save the configuration, DO NOT save.
router#reload
System configuration has been modified. Save? [yes/no]: n
Proceed with reload? [confirm]
Once the router reloads, the System Configuration Dialog appears.
--- System Configuration Dialog ---
Would you like to enter the initial configuration dialog? [yes/no]:
The router is now reset to the original factory defaults.
Method 2
1. uses the config-register 0x2142 command in global configuration mode.
2. Enter the config-register 0x2142 command in global configuration mode.
router(config)#config-register 0x2142
This causes the router to ignore the start-up configuration on the next reload. If a show version is issued, the last line in the command output will have '(will be 0x2142 at next reload)' appended to the current configuration register setting.
3. Reload the router using the reload command in enable mode. It is not necessary to save when prompted to save the system configuration.
router#reload
System configuration has been modified. Save? [yes/no]: n
Proceed with reload? [confirm]
After the router has reloaded, the System Configuration Dialog appears.
4. Enter no to the question "Would you like to enter initial configuration dialog?"
5. Change the configuration register setting to 0x2102 by entering the config-register 0x2102 command once in global configuration mode.
6. Issue the write memory command in enable mode to overwrite the existing start-up configuration with the current running configuration.
7. Reload the router with the reload command in enable mode.
Once the router reloads, the System configuration Dialog appears.
--- System Configuration Dialog ---
Would you like to enter the initial configuration dialog? [yes/no]:
The router is now reset to the original factory defaults.
Note: The configurations below are stored in ROMMON, and cannot be reset to Factory Default Settings by the write erase or config-register 0x2142 commands.

he WEP key is defined by the person who set your wireless router up. You will not be able to find out what the WEP key is, but you CAN change it if you have physical access to the router. If you are trying to connect to your wireless router and can't remember the WEP, then walk over to the router and on the back or bottom of it is a small little hole that you can fit a pen or paper clip into. Press the paper clip into the little hole for 10 seconds and release. This will reset all the settings on your router back to default and will allow you to access your wireless connection.

Note: doing this will take away all of your wireless security so make sure that you know what you're doing before messing with it!

Thanks and please rate if this helps you at all :).

Configuration register is 0x2102

if yours differs the use the these commands to correct it


R1>en
R1#conf t
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
R1(config)#config 0x2102
R1(config)#^Z

Hope this helps

I have the setup instructions posted, click on the link below and follow those instructions. If after following those instructions you are still having a problem feel free to contact me.

  Follow these steps in order to recover your password:
  
  1. Attach a terminal or PC with terminal emulation to the console port of the router.
     Use these terminal settings:
     
     • 9600 baud rate
       
     • No parity
       
     • 8 data bits
       
     • 1 stop bit
       
     • No flow control
       
  2. If you can access the router, type show version at the prompt, and record the configuration register setting.
     Note: The configuration register is usually set to 0x2102 or 0x102. If you can no longer access the router (because of a lost login or TACACS password), you can safely assume that your configuration register is set to 0x2102.
     
  3. Use the power switch in order to turn off the router, and then turn the router back on.
     Important Notes:
     
     • In order to simulate this step on a Cisco 6400, pull out and then plug in the Node Route Processor (NRP) or Node Switch Processor (NSP) card.
       
     • In order to simulate this step on a Cisco 6x00 with NI-2, pull out and then plug in the NI-2 card.
       
  4. Press Break on the terminal keyboard within 60 seconds of power up in order to put the router into ROMMON.
     If the break sequence does not work, refer to Standard Break Key Sequence Combinations During Password Recovery for other key combinations.
     
  5. Type confreg 0x2142 at the rommon 1> prompt in order to boot from Flash.
     This step bypasses the startup configuration where the passwords are stored.
     
  6. Type reset at the rommon 2> prompt.
     The router reboots, but ignores the saved configuration.
     
  7. Type no after each setup question, or press Ctrl-C in order to skip the initial setup procedure.
     
  8. Type enable at the Router> prompt.
     You are in enable mode and should see the Router# prompt.
     
  9. Type configure memory or copy startup-config running-config in order to copy the nonvolatile RAM (NVRAM) into memory.
     Important: Do not type copy running-config startup-config or write. These commands erase your startup configuration.
     
  10. Type show running-config.
      The show running-config command shows the configuration of the router. In this configuration, the shutdown command appears under all interfaces, which indicates all interfaces are currently shut down. In addition, the passwords (enable password, enable secret, vty, console passwords) are in either an encrypted or unencrypted format. You can reuse unencrypted passwords. You must change encrypted passwords to a new password.
      
  11. Type configure terminal.
      The hostname(config)# prompt appears.
      
  12. Type enable secret password> in order to change the enable secret password. For example:
      hostname(config)#enable secret cisco
  13. Issue the no shutdown command on every interface that you use.
      If you issue a show ip interface brief command in privilege EXEC mode, every interface that you want to use should display up up. For example:
      Router#show ip interface brief
      
  14. Type config-register configuration_register_setting>. Where configuration_register_setting is either the value you recorded in step 2 or0x2102 . For example:
      hostname(config)#config-register 0x2102
  15. Press Ctrl-z or end in order to leave the configuration mode.
      The hostname# prompt appears.
      
  16. Type write memory or copy running-config startup-config in order to commit the changes.

1. Reboot
2. Press the "break" button on your keyboard within 60 seconds of the power-up to put the router into ROMMON mode.
3. confreg 0x2142
4. reset
5. type, "no" when prompted to enter the initial configuration dialog.
6. enable
7. copy startup-config running-config
8. conf t
9. enable secret <password>
11. config-register 0x2102
12. reboot again

you need to change the config register back to 0x2102.
type "?" and find the command to change startup settings, go through the list (I'm working from memory here, sorry) and make sure it is NOT ignoring startup settings. There may be a way to edit the config register value directly, can't recall.

Hi,
Your router is in the wrong mode. You need to change this by changing the conf-register to 0x2102

at the rommon prompt type in

config-reg 0x2102

reboot

If there are any errors you can get the correct syntax by typing ? at the rommon prompt the line number will go up on every line.

The way to get into rommon mode is by pressing the break key from Hyperterminal as the router is rebooting. So make sure you don't do this by accident. If you do just reboot by power cycling.

Your Startup Config should be unchanged, but you need to be very careful what you do in rommon mode it is easy to blat stuff.

Any changes you make once you get into the command (enable) mode should be saved by
copy running-config startup-config

Any problems just let me know.

good feed back would be much appreciated.
