It can take approximately 20-25 seconds for the switch to reboot. This process

restores the switch configuration to the factory default settings.

Configuring Front-Panel Security

Using the front-panel-security command from the global configuration context

in the CLI you can:

• Disable or re-enable the password-clearing function of the Clear

button. Disabling the Clear button means that pressing it does not

remove local password protection from the switch. (This action

affects the Clear button when used alone, but does not affect the

operation of the Reset+Clear combination described under “Restor-

ing the Factory Default Configuration” on page 2-25.)

• Configure the Clear button to reboot the switch after clearing any

local usernames and passwords. This provides an immediate, visual

means (plus an Event Log message) for verifying that any usernames

and passwords in the switch have been cleared.
