Using Maintenance Features
Resetting the Configuration
You must have maintenance authorization rights to access this feature.
This feature is used to reset all configuration data for the switch to
factory default values.
This operation will not reset the password of the Embedded Web Server.
If you have enabled features that add additional port function since
the director was shipped from the factory, these features will be
disabled (factory default) when the configuration is reset. Only those
ports that were enabled at the factory will function. You must enable
the additional port function features again. (Refer to Configuring the
Feature Key on page 5-28.)
Note on IP Address This procedure resets the IP address the factory default value. If you
have changed the value, you might not recover the Ethernet
connection between the switch and Connectrix service processor. In
this case you must re-enter LAN addressing (such as IP and gateway
addresses) through a terminal attached to the maintenance port.
Before using the Reset Configuration option, record the switch’s
current IP address, which appears below the switch’s icon in the
Connectrix Manager Products view (with the display option set to
Network Address
). You can also find the current IP address through
the Embedded Web Server interface.
After resetting the configuration, reset LAN addressing to the desired
values through the maintenance port or the Embedded Web Server
interface.
Procedure 1. Reset Configuration on the drop-down menu.
CAUTION
!
This operation will reset all switch configuration data and
non-volatile settings to factory default values. All optional features
will also be disabled. The switch must be off line to continue.
2. Set the switch off line. For instructions, refer to Setting the Online
State on page 7-8.
