Hello dears!
I have been struggling to find a solution for my problem!

I have tried to access through SSH. & serial port it keep asking for the token !
on mobile token I could generates the code but on dashboard it says that authentication failure !
Hello @Arrowexpress ,
If your version is 7.2.4 or lower, you can use the maintainer account to reset your password and token.
Otherwise, you have to factory reset the device after than you can restore from backup if you have.
This seems bad but we learn from our mistakes.
