I had this saved:
Here's the trick to enter the secret engineer-mode in a catalyst 5K :
With Supervisor-Engine I:
Enter enable mode
Do a SH VERSION (so that you get Hardware-,Firmware- and Software-Versions)
Type ENABLE ENGINEER
You will be prompted for a password. Now this is very complex. You must
enter the password in
the following format:
VTY VTY HW FW SW
That is, the VTY-password followed by the VTY-password again, followed by
the Hardware-Version,
followed by the Software-version(no spaces, do not type the dots in the
versions)
Let's say (an assumption):
the VTY-password is c
the Hardware-version is 2.2
the formware-version is 2.3
then you would enter as the engineer-password:
cc2223
With Supervisor-Engine II:
Enter enable mode
Do a SH VERSION (so that you get Hardware-,Firmware- and Software-Versions)
Type ENABLE ENGINEER
You will be prompted for a password. Now this is very complex. You must
enter the password in
the following format:
VTY HW FW SW VTY
That is, the VTY-password followed by the VTY-password again, followed by
the Hardware-Version,
followed by the Software-version (no spaces, do not type the dots in the
versions).
Let's say (an assumption):
the VTY-password is c
the Hardware-version is 2.2
the formware-version is 2.3
then you would enter as the engineer-password: c2223c
You see, the difference between Supervisor I and II is just the position
where the second VTY-password
is placed.
After you are in engineer-mode, you can display the available functions by
SH ?
There will be a lot new (besides the know ones) functions available !!
Great isn't it ?
OK, here's a demonstration:

Does any body know about "enable engineer" (not regular "enable") command
in Catalyst? I heard
it's undocumented, and do you know what it does?
