Hello!
I´m trying to get root access to ADE-OS by issuing the "root" command from CLI. But it says I´ve got the wrong password: "Permission denied (publickey,gssapi-with-mic,password)"
But as I remember its should be the password to the root account and it works using the same password to log into the NCS Prime web-gui as root.
Just to be clear:
Web-gui-access: root account works
CLI-access to ADE-OS w/ root account from CLI: password wrong ie. permisson denied
Any ideas?
Solved! Go to Solution.

The only way around that is to reset the password.

root_disable
root_enable
root
commands you can execute from the CLI
If you don't know the root enable password, simply enter root_disable then root_enable, set yourself a new root password then enter root and boom, you're in.
There are 2 seperate root accounts::
1 to access the webui
1 to access the cli
