Restoring the factory-default configuration
As part of your troubleshooting process, it may become necessary to return the switch configuration to the factory
default settings. This process:
• Momentarily interrupts the switch operation
• Clears any passwords
• Clears the console Event Log
• Resets the network counters to zero
• Performs a complete self test
• Reboots the switch into its factory default configuration, including deleting an IP address
There are two methods for resetting to the factory-default configuration:
• CLI
• Clear/Reset button combination
