[Troubleshooting Methodologies] Which two actions are typically performed in ROMMON mode during the password recovery process? (Choose two.)

During the password recovery process on Cisco devices, ROMMON (ROM Monitor) mode is utilized

to perform specific actions that facilitate the recovery. Two critical actions typically performed in

ROMMON mode are:​

Change the Configuration Register: The configuration register is modified to instruct the device to

ignore the startup configuration during the next boot. This is commonly achieved by setting the

configuration register to 0x2142. This action prevents the device from loading the saved

configuration, allowing access without requiring the existing passwords.​

Reboot the Device: After changing the configuration register, the device is rebooted to apply the new

settings. This reboot enables the device to bypass the startup configuration, facilitating the password

recovery process.​

These steps are essential in the password recovery procedure, allowing administrators to regain

access to the device without erasing the existing configuration.​
