What is the purpose of the configuration register?
To recover or reset an enable password, a user will utilize the ROMMON interface to instruct the router to ignore the startup configuration when booting. When booted, the user will access privilege EXEC mode, overwrite the running configuration with the saved startup configuration, recover or reset the password, and restore the router’s boot process to include the startup configuration.
The router’s configuration register plays a vital role in the process of password recovery. In the first part of this lab, you will research the purpose of a router’s configuration register and the meaning of certain configuration register values.
