Factory Reset Procedure
71
• Connect network to left hand port. Power LED comes on solidly.
This process will start the FireBrick in a factory reset mode temporarily - the configuration stored in flash
memory has not yet been altered or deleted at this stage.
If you do not save a new configuration at this stage, then the FB6000 will revert to the existing saved
configuration when next powered up or restarted.
It is also possible to recover the configuration stored in flash memory, if you know an administrative username
and password for it - this gives you an opportunity to correct a configuration, such as where you had made a
change that prevented you from accessing the FB6000.
To factory reset permanently follow the same process but with ports 1 and 2 looped - this will overwrite the
configuration stored in flash memory, so use this reset method with caution.
