A network engineer was in the middle of setting up a customer ASA 5510 Firewall and left. We don't know the IP/UN/PW.

Is there a way to hard reset the firewall back to manufacture settings?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

The easiest thing would be to do a password recovery, as described here:

Then you can simply reset the password and carry on where he left off.

HTH

Thank you, will try it - was hoping for the easy way out because not sure if he screwed up the config or still intact.

I guess there's no easy reset solution like the switch?

Really appreciate your time.
