Could someone new try to get root password like this without serial console?

I'm not 100% sure that it will work on devices that were never touched before, since maybe i still have some settings set different.

To replicate a "factory default" router i had removed EngDebugFlag environment variable and erased RomD and also factory reset my router.
Now when using serial console to stop autoboot, i am asked for a password for zloader.

  1. Factory reset your T-56 and leave the wan cable out since you need to login as supervisor.
  2. Gain SSH access by following instructions i posted before which i link below.

  4. login ssh supervisor@192.168.1.1 with pasword :Uo1=8mR~`f.t?;MVsfk&e;u!L|;'4
  5. sys atsh to see info and your mac addr
  6. sys atwz (mac) 0 1 your mac addr format has to be like a1b2c3d4e5f6
  7. sys atck to see root pass ?

I feel like this was not possible before so it's probably some setting i forgot to change i'm guessing?
