Network Associates Default Router Passwords
This page lists 4 confirmed default credentials for Network Associates equipment, covering 4 models. The pairing you are most likely to need is GlobalAdmin with GlobalAdmin.
Entries are reachable over http, management console and ssh + web console. 2 of these entries use a protocol that sends the password in clear text, so use them on a trusted network and change the password once you are in.

About Network Associates
The Network Associates records here run across the WebShield line.
Reaching the login page
Point a browser at whatever your computer reports as its default gateway. On Windows that is the Default Gateway line from ipconfig; on macOS, Network settings shows it under the active connection.
What the Network Associates defaults look like
Usernames vary; GlobalAdmin is the one that appears most, on a single entry. 2 of them are reached over a protocol that puts the password on the wire in clear text, so work from a machine on the same wired network rather than across the internet, and change the password once you are in.
If the Network Associates password has already been changed
There is a recessed reset button on the back or underneath that needs a straightened paperclip. Hold it in for thirty seconds with the unit powered on. Let go when the lights change pattern, and give it a couple of minutes to come back up.
A reset clears more than the password. The Wi-Fi name and key go back to what is printed on the label, port forwards and firewall rules are discarded, and any static addressing is lost. Photograph the settings pages first — it takes two minutes and saves an evening.
