Help entering Rommon on 3700 series

Highspeedlane
Level 1
Level 1

We have a 3750 switch and can't enter rommon. The password recovery functionality is enabled, and we tried connecting with hyperterminal on both a Dell Inspiron laptop and also tried a Dell 2970 running Windows Server 2003.

After bootup starts, we tried Control + C, Control + Break and tried the Break key by itself, but the switch continues to boot into the OS.

Any suggestions here as to what we might be overlooking?

Thanks in advance.

Hi ,

On 3750 switches we need to use the mode button on the switch to get into the rommon mode.

Here is the password recovery procedure:
