Raritan KX232 Password Reset

1

I have a raritan KX232 that I need to factory reset, however I've forgotten the administrative username/password. I've already tried connecting to the local port and using admin/R*E*S*E*T as the documentation says to, but it doesn't seem to work at all. Does anyone know of another method to factory reset the box without credentials?

Those were changed. I've been scouring the documentation for the better part of two days. The defaults do not work, and the 'RESET' password does not work either. – Nathan F. – 2016-05-17T17:21:19.130

Presumably someone has set "Disable all local resets" as documented on p28 of the user guide

Password reset cannot be done remotely. – Moab – 2016-05-17T17:45:46.933

KX2 series: If you changed the password from the Default one, you can do a hard reset of the switch, then use the default login all lower case.

user name: admin

password: ratarian

The DKX232 series doesn't appear to have a reset button according to the user guide

No idea .... :/ – DavidPostill – 2016-05-17T17:53:53.183

The DKX232 does not have a hard reset button. I'm unsure why it is different from the other KX2 models. – Nathan F. – 2016-05-18T16:57:55.377

The KX reset password must be used when connected to it directly, it will not work accross the network – Moab – 2016-05-18T20:48:08.250
