Definate Console Problem, Never seen this before.. :-(

[franksoprano]

I have just recently booted back up my Cisco 1924 Catalyst switch and when I access a console session via Hyper Terminal it boots up to the User Interface Menu

when I select option [M] for Menus it gives me the following message:


Enter Selection: M

This option cannot be used when TACACS+ is in enabled.

Press any key to continue.


When I select [K] for command line it displays the following:

Enter Selection: K
No Tacacs+ servers have been configured.

Press any key to continue.


What do I have to do to get around this so I can access the switch and make configuration changes? I have never seen this happen before...

AAA has probably been configured without specifying a server. This means that you are locked out of the box. Going to have to perform trusty old password recovery...

You should be able to find the procedures here...

If this doesn't work, let me know....
