Disable any Network Interface in conflict with the Network Rescue Interface.
Configure and enable the Rescue Network Interface to:
use the link as the default value used by the Uplink Network Interface
set the IP address to 192.168.0.1 and the Network Mask to 255.255.255.0.
set the IPv6 link-local address on all network links. The IPv6 link-local address can be found underneath the unit.
A partial reset will also modify the following parameters and preserve the values below even after the Rescue interface has been disabled.

Performing a Partial Reset
Before you begin
Note: It is not recommended to access the unit on a regular basis through the Rescue Network Interface.
Important: Make sure the unit is connected to the WAN port, as the Rescue interface is bound to the unit's WAN port (wan for the Mediatrix 4102S, and
ETH1 for all other Mediatrix units). The IP address of the Rescue interface is 192.168.0.1 (IPv4) or an IPv6 Link Local address.
Procedure
When the Power LED is steady or blinking rapidly, insert a small unbent paper clip into the hole of the button located on the Reset/Default
Mediatrix unit.
Note: The Power LED will start blinking.
Wait a few seconds.
When all LEDs are blinking, but before they stop blinking, remove the paper clip.
Note: You have between 7 to 11 seconds.
Results
The Rescue Network Interface is displayed when accessing the Management Interface. Several parameters and services are modified, refer to Partial
. Do not forget to perform the step. Reset Disabling the Rescue Interface

Factory Reset
The Factory reset reverts the Mediatrix unit back to its default factory settings.
It deletes the persistent configuration parameters of the unit, including:
User files stored in the File service
Certificates, except for factory installed ones
Log files of the File service
The Factory reset should be performed with the Mediatrix unit connected to a network with access to a DHCP server. If the unit cannot find a DHCP
server, it will sent requests indefinitely. A Factory Reset can be triggered either:
Directly on the unit. Refer to . Performing a Factory Reset
Via the web interface of the Mediatrix unit ( / ). Management Firmware Upgrade
Via the Command Line Interface of the Mediatrix unit by using the parameter. fpu.defaultsetting

Performing a Factory Reset
Context
The Factory reset alters any persistent configuration data of the Mediatrix unit.
Steps
Insert a small, unbent paper clip into the hole of the button, located on the Mediatrix unit. Reset/Default
Note: Do not release the button before the LEDs stop blinking and are steadily ON. This can last from 12 to 16 seconds. If you Reset/Default
leave the inserted pin longer, no action will be taken which is useful if you accidentally pushed the button and do not need any action to be
applied.
