    Well, assuming you have CLI access here are a couple resources for you to check out.

     

    If you are using versions 9-10 Check out this link.

     

    If you are using versions 11-14 Check out this link.

     

    Those should enable you to reset your admin password for GUI access.

     

    Hope that helps! If it does please up-vote and select this answer, it'd be greatly appreciated!

    So to be clear, do you have CLI access as Root? Also, what version of BIG-IP are you using?
