Using the CLI Command
The Command Line Interface (CLI) provides a reset command for
restoring the PX to factory defaults. For information on CLI, see
Using
the Command Line Interface
(on page 341).
To reset to factory defaults after logging in to the CLI:
1. Connect to the PX device. See
Logging in to CLI
(on page 342) or
Connecting the PX to a Computer
(on page 18).
2. Launch a terminal emulation program such as HyperTerminal, Kermit,
or PuTTY, and open a window on the PX. For information on the
serial port configuration, see Step 2 of
Initial Network
Configuration via CLI
(on page 22).
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.
