Lost enable password

How can I config my UC500 as we don't know the enable password?
Is there a quick way of resetting it or the UC500 itself?

Console

there is a way to reset the enable password through the console.

during boot you need to send a break which will take you to Rommon>

I'm pretty sure the command is "confreg 0x2142" which will set your system to bypass the startup config at boot.

Once you boot into a blank config DO NOT WRITE TO MEMORY!!

do the following:

Router> en
Router# copy start run

(this will copy your saved startup config into the running config)

Router# conf t
Router(config)# enable password xxxxxxxxx (password)
Router(config)# enable secret xxxxxxxxx (password)
Router(config)# conf reg 0x2102
Router(config)# end
Router# wr

(this will remake the enable password to something that you can remember, and the conf reg 0x2102 sets the system to boot from the startup config again for next boot)
