GW Password Recovery with SmartConsole Script

In this Post, we walk through how to use SmartConsole scripts to recover a lost administrator password on a firewall.

We cover generating a hash with OpenSSL, editing the script to include the correct IP, and executing it in SmartConsole. This method is especially useful in cases of credential loss or admin transitions.
