Brute-force attack
From SFPTotal Wiki
For password recovery SFPTotal Wizard supports a search function in brute force mode. This function could help if you need check passwords in a narrow range of values. Also, you can fast check a password for write-protected transceivers using a dictionary of passwords.
How to use
- Read a vendor code from transceiver (or use random code template)
- Change at least one byte in the HEX grid. The code in software's window should be different than a code in transceiver's memory
- Open menu Control -> Search password
- Set parameters Table address (default: A2) and Password offset (default: 7B)
- Set additional options (if needed)
- Select range of password value or use dictionary of passwords
- Push Start button to begin brute-force attack
