All SONiC devices support both the serial console based login and the SSH based login by default. The default credential for login is admin/YourPaSsWoRd. In case of SSH login, users can login to the management interface (eth0) IP address after configuring the same using serial console. Refer the next section for configuring the IP address for management interface.

This section gives the instruction of how to reset a SONiC switch password.
1. First you need to get into grub menu options. This menu is displayed right at the beginning of the boot. You should get something similar to this, but not the exactly the same. Choose the choice Start with SONiC-:
GNU GRUB version 2.02 /----------------------------------------------------------------------------\ |*SONiC-OS-202012-nb-inno.0-25af05a8 | | ONIE | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | \----------------------------------------------------------------------------/ Use the ^ and v keys to select which entry is highlighted. Press enter to boot the selected OS, `e' to edit the commands
2. Now we attempt to edit grub’s boot option. Press “e” to edit the first grub menu option and navigate to kernel line:
3. Remove quiet and add init=/bin/bash
4. Press Ctrl-x to boot
1. After successfully boot you will be presented with bash command prompt:
