4.7 Save Your Configuration
When you are done modifying the settings in a screen, click Apply to save your changes back to the
run-time memory. Settings in the run-time memory are lost when the Switch’s power is turned off.
Click the Save link in the upper right of the Web Configurator to save your configuration to non-volatile
memory. Non-volatile memory refers to the Switch’s storage that remains even if the Switch’s power is
turned off.
Note: Use the Save link when you are done with a configuration session.
4.8 Switch Lockout
You could block yourself (and all others) from managing the Switch if you do one of the following:
1 Delete the management VLAN (default is VLAN 1).
2 Delete all port-based VLANs with the CPU port as a member. The “CPU port” is the management port of
the Switch.
3 Filter all traffic to the CPU port.
4 Disable all ports.
5 Misconfigure the text configuration file.
6 Forget the password and/or IP address.
7 Prevent all services from accessing the Switch.
8 Change a service port number but forget it.
9 You forgot to log out of the Switch from a computer before logging in again on another computer.
Note: Be careful not to lock yourself and others out of the Switch.
4.9 Reset the Switch
If you lock yourself (and others) from the Switch or forget the administrator password, you will need to
reload the factory-default configuration file or reset the Switch back to the factory defaults.
See Section 3.1 on page 44 to see how to use the RESTORE button to restore the factory default file.
4.9.1 Reboot the Switch
Press the RESET button to reboot the Switch without turning the power off. See Section 3.3 on page 53 for
more information about the LED behavior.
