[c-nsp] No Service Password Recovery

[Mack McBride]

If the environment is that important, you might want to upgrade the switch.
That switch has been EoL for a long time and probably has a whole load of
caveats that are unresolved.  As others have pointed out, if the switch is
accessible by 'bad guys' then they can pull the plug or swap it out.

Hey all,

I've been googling and ciscocom searching and have found nothing so far.

I was to 'no service password-recovery' on a old Catalyst 2924.  Does anyone know of a way?

It is in a delicate environment and it doesn't support 'secret', so if its password recovered people would be able to crack the 'password' level passwords.
