Hi,

I got new 3845 router and logged in first time with default username and password "cisco" and i just changed the hostname and write it. I rebooted the router and now it is not taking the default login info.Please suggest.

Thanks in advance.

I already recovered the password.

But i am thinking why it happened....

hello,

There is no DEF username and PW for a 3845. you will have to do a PW recovery if you dont know what it was set to.

Here's the PW recovery page

There is default username and passowrd "cisco" but we can use this only once in IOS 12.4 T and first time only we have to set up enable secret otherwise it wont allow to login if exit the first session.
