[MX9116n OS10 10.5.5.1] - Via Chassis Console - Serial Connect to Switch for entering ONIE - Prompt for Username and Password
Goodafternoon All,
I did a SSH session to my chassis where the Switch A1 is located. I used a getmodinfo to identify the A1 switch.
I did a "racadm connect -m Switch-1" command and logged in with my admin account.
I did a reload to reboot the switch I am connected to.
I pressed constantly Esc to stop the switch from booting the A or B partition. I used the arrow keys to go to the *ONIE in the GNU GRUB.
After entering the ONIE it is asking for a Username and Password. I tried all my passwords (Admin/Linuxadmin) and I tried plenty of default password.
How do I recover the password of the ONIE?
- I also did a delete startup-configuration to wipe the OS10 data.
- I also sent someone from the datacenter-team physically to the switch to find any factory reset button but unfortunately....

Hello Kayn001,
I see you have tried several attempts at different credentials but I wanted to check you tried just root with no password?
In this document you can use SSH and Telnet to log in ONIE using the Out of Band Management Port IP Address
The default username of ONIE is root. There is no password that is required
