      Dear Samir

      Not able to run the suggested command which you reffered

       

  • these command will run under tmsh. Add `tmsh` initial and try.

     

     

    Example: tmsh show running-config global-settings

    tmsh list global-settings

      Just try the above method.

       

      Get inside the shell & run the below

      # passwd admin

       

      I see you are already a root user, so you can change the password of admin.
