LevelOne GSW-1290 Gigabit Layer2 SNMP Switch
Factory Reset
The Factory Reset function has several options when resetting the Switch. Some of the current
configuration parameters can be retained while resetting all other configuration parameters to their factory
defaults.
Please note that the Reset System option will enter the factory default parameters into the Switch’s non-
volatile RAM, and then restart the Switch. All other options enter the factory defaults into the current
configuration, but do not save this configuration. Reset System will return the Switch’s configuration to the
state it was when it left the factory.
Reset gives the option of retaining the Switch’s User Accounts and History Log while resetting all other
configuration parameters to their factory defaults. If the Switch is reset with this option enabled, and Save
Changes is not executed, the Switch will return to the last saved configuration when rebooted.
The Reset Config option will reset all of the Switch’s configuration parameters to their factory defaults,
without saving these default values to the Switch’s non-volatile RAM. If the Switch is reset with this
option enabled, and Save Changes is not executed, the Switch will return to the last saved configuration
when rebooted.
In addition, the Reset System option is added to reset all configuration parameters to their factory defaults,
save these parameters to the Switch’s non-volatile RAM, and then restart the Switch. This option is
equivalent to Reset Config (above) followed by Save Changes.
