Disable password recovery
Hi guys,
Is it possible to disable the password recovery on a Dell N-Series Switch?
I want to prevent anyone with console access from accessing the Switch configuration and clearing the password.
Hope someone can help.

Remember locking the boot menu would also prevent you from recovering access.
Best option would be to physically secure your switches and to use a console server
with user authentication as an emergency access method.
Dell offers Vertiv (former Avocent) ACS console servers for this scenario.

Hi NetGuy30,
Unfortunately, there is not a way to disable anything in the boot menu.
