Using the Reset Config Button
If a configuration fails or denies management access to the services gateway, you can
use the Reset Config button to restore the device to the factory default configuration or to
a rescue configuration. For example, if someone inadvertently commits a configuration
that denies management access to the services gateway, you can delete the invalid
configuration and replace it with a rescue configuration by pressing the Reset Config
button.
The rescue configuration is a previously committed, valid configuration. You must have
previously set the rescue configuration through the J-Web interface or the CLI.
NOTE: The Reset Config button is recessed to prevent it from being pressed
accidentally.
To press the Reset Config button, insert a small probe (such as a straightened paper clip)
into the pinhole on the front panel.
Resetting the Device to the Rescue Configuration
To reset the device to the rescue configuration, briefly press and release the Reset
Config button. The device loads and commits the rescue configuration.
Resetting the Device to the Factory Default Configuration
To reset the device to the factory default configuration, press and hold the Reset Config
button for 15 seconds or more—until the Status LED is amber and steadily on. This
action deletes all configurations on the device, including the backup configurations and
rescue configuration, and loads and commits the factory default configuration.
For more information about using the Reset Config button, including how to change its
default behavior, see the hardware guide for your device.
Powering Off the Device
You can power off the device in one of the following ways:
Graceful shutdown—Press and immediately release the Power button. The device
begins gracefully shutting down the operating system.
Forced shutdown—Press the Power button and hold it for 10 seconds. The device
immediately shuts down. Press the Power button again to power on the device.
You can reboot or halt the system in the J-Web interface by selecting Maintain >
Reboot.
NOTE: Use the graceful shutdown method to halt, power off, or reboot the services
gateway. Use the forced shutdown method as a last resort to recover the services
gateway if the services gateway operating system is not responding to the graceful
shutdown method.
