Configuring a Switch

security.

parameters for new or replacement switches. To start the configuration wizard, on
the Wizards menu, click Configuration Wizard.
Switch Properties

parameters:

Hard Reset Resets a switch with a Power On Self Test. This reset activates
the pending firmware and it is disruptive to switch traffic.
NOTE:
If performing a Reset or a Hard Reset, the support files, the firmware image
files that have not been unpacked, and the configuration backup files that
were created on the switch are deleted.
