I just replaced cisco 4506 with new 4506-e, the uplink port didn't work for trunking

Hi, if you installed a Supervisor 6L-E 10GE (X2) in the new 4506-E and you want to use the two 10GE uplinks as Gigabit, you need to type in the following config lines:

hw-module module 1 port-group 1 select gigabitethernet
hw-module module 1 port-group 2 select gigabitethernet

Hello, I tried the steps you have mentioned in the link below: http://www.fixya.com/support/t3932749-password_recovery_cisco_catalyst_4506 and the other similar resolutions on the cisco website but...

Please make sure you have only one supervisor module installed on your switch or else pull out the backup sup module and do this activity .

In the last step of reset it will ask to save the config.

do you wish to save this configuration? y/n [n]: y
You must reset or power cycle for new configuration to take effect

do not forget to type in y there.

Default pasword

Cisco switches dont have a default password.
You will have to perform a password recovery process that is quite extensive.
You need to console into the switch using hyperterminal or teraterm and follow these instructions located at: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/switches/ps628/products_password_recovery09186a0080094184.shtml
