Resetting the Password
You can reset the module password to the default. For the user cisco, the default password is cisco. After
resetting the password, you should change it to a unique value using the module application.
Resetting the module password causes the module to reboot. Services are not available while the module
is rebooting.
If you cannot connect to ASDM with the new password, restart ASDM and try to log in again. If you
defined a new password and still have an existing password in ASDM that is different from the new
password, clear the password cache by choosing File > Clear ASDM Password Cache, then restart
ASDM and try to log in again.
To reset the module password to the default of cisco, perform the following steps.
