The BMC factory reset helps to reset the BMC login password. If you do a factory reset, you reset all previous user-level configurations, and reload the default configurations.
Use one of the following methods to do a factory reset:
Use the the BMC web user interface.
Go to Operations -> Factory reset -> Reset BMC and server settings.
Use the BMC console.
root@mgx-3809:~# ipmitool raw 0x32 0x66
Use Redfish.
