Using the CLI Command
The Command Line Interface (CLI) provides a reset command for
restoring the BCM2 to factory defaults. For information on CLI, see
Using the Command Line Interface
(on page 355).
To reset to factory defaults after logging in to the CLI:
1. Connect to the BCM2 device. See
Logging in to CLI
(on page 356) or
Making an RS-232 or USB Connection.
2. Launch a terminal emulation program such as HyperTerminal,
Kermit, or PuTTY, and open a window on the BCM2. For information
on the serial port configuration, see step 2 of
With HyperTerminal
(on page 356).
3. Log in to the CLI by typing the user name "admin" and its password.
4. After the # system prompt appears, type either of the following
commands and press Enter.
# reset factorydefaults
-- OR --
# reset factorydefaults /y
5. If you entered the command without "
/y
" in Step 4, a message
appears prompting you to confirm the operation. Type y to confirm
the reset.
6. Wait until the Username prompt appears, indicating the reset is
complete.
