Hi. Is there a software that would allow me to decrypt a md5 hash appearing on my run-config? We are having some password issues and i was thinking of a way to decrypt a password appearing on a saved config text without having to go through the typical password recovery.
I don't believe the MD5 hash passwords are able to be decrypted (like the "7" passwords). The only way I know of to break a MD5 password is brute force. It looks like a password recovery would be your best option in this case.

Create a TAC Case. I have heard quiet rumours in the past that Cisco has a tool to un-encrypt MD5 passwords.
