Got it working
Below is a mail from Bob...found it in archieves...
enable engineer
this prompts for a password, which has the form:
passwordHWFWSWenablepass
password, enablepass: whatever passwords are on the box HW, FW, SW: first
two digits of the hardware, firmware, software versions running on the
Supervisor, shown by show version.
Example: password and enablepass are cisco, show version says HW: 3.2,
FW: 5.3(1), SW: 5.4(4)
The enable engineer password would be cisco325354cisco

Hi,
After reading this post , I remember I tried this command in one of my
previous jobs..
Enable engineer
In my present job , when I type this command it is asking for a password.
I have tried the regular password which are suppose to me CAT switches
password..
But it does work..
Does anyone knows what is the default password to login to engineer mode ?
Cheers
Vishal

Search the archives for this topic. It was discussed heavily when the
Cat5ks were used in the CCIE lab. As far as why it's not documented, well
it's an "engineer mode" and not a "customer mode" ;-)

I read on the hienzulm website about an engineering mode in the cat5000
switches , does the cat 550 have a similar mode? what does it do ? why has
cisco chosen not to document this mode and to hide it so well
