    Hi Rohit,

     

    There was some changes made with 10.0 onwards where we need to disable the watchdog .
    Without disabling watchdog the password recovery will not work.Refer kb http://kb.juniper.net/InfoCenter/index?page=content&id=KB17565&smlogin=true for more details

     

    Hope this helps.

    1.Power off the device by pressing the power button on the front panel and reboot the device.

    2.Turn on the power to the management device.

    3.Power on the device by pressing the power button on the front panel. Verify that the POWER LED on the front panel turns green.The terminal emulation screen on your management device displays the device’s boot sequence.

     

    4.When the following prompt appears, press the spacebar to access the router’s bootstrap loader and type in the following commands:

    Hit [Enter] to boot immediately, or space bar for command prompt.
    Booting [kernel] in 9 seconds...

    Loader>

    5.At the following prompt, enter recovery to start the root password recovery procedure.

    Enter full pathname of shell or 'recovery' for root password recovery or RETURN for /bin/sh: recovery

     

    6.Enter configuration mode in the CLI.

     

    7.Set the root password. For example:

    8.At the following prompt, enter the new root password. For example:

    Booting [kernel] in 9 seconds...
