Q. How can configured passwords be removed, and when is the password removal effective?

A. Remove the password line in the corresponding .conf file and restart the daemons to access the router to make the password removal effective.

Your 

.conf
file should be located in 
/config/zebos/rd0/ZebOS.conf
for route domain 0. Change the the 
/rd0/
for a different route domain e.g. for route domain 5 
/config/zebos/rd5/ZebOS.conf
