The only way is if you are using DHCP to get an IP address to the phone.  If you are, then you can have it point the phone to a TFTP server with config files with a new password.  If you are using a static IP, then you are out of luck.  I opened up a TAC case about a year ago, and that is what Cisco said.  Fortunately we were able to guess what it was reset to, otherwise that phone would still be locked today.

Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Cisco 7960 Password Recovery

i appear to misplaced my password for my cisco 7960 SIP Phone.  Does anyone know the procedure to recover this?  I have read in the past that you can use "cisco" or "Cisco" but this does not appear to work.
 
Thanks in advance.
