Restoring the factory default settings
There are three different methods for restoring the Standalone Access Point factory default
settings:
●
Vulnerable time interval
– The Standalone Access Point boot-up sequence includes a
vulnerable time interval. During the vulnerable time interval (2 seconds), the LEDs flash in
a particular sequence to indicate that the Standalone Access Point is in the vulnerable time
interval. For more information, see Table 12 on page 49.
If you power up the Standalone Access Point and interrupt the power during the vulnerable
time interval three consecutive times, the next time the Standalone Access Point reboots,
it will restore its factory defaults including the user password and the default IP settings.
●
Reset button (Hardware)
– Press and hold the
Reset
button on the Standalone Access
Point for approximately five seconds. The Standalone Access Point is rebooted and the
factory defaults are restored.
●
Restore Factory Defaults (Graphical User Interface)
– Use the
Restore Factory
Defaults
button on the
Tools
> Configuration
screen to restore the factory defaults via
the Standalone Access Point GUI.
To restore factory default settings using the vulnerable time interval:
1.
Reboot the Standalone Access Point.
2.
Depower and power the Standalone Access Point during the vulnerable time interval.
3.
Repeat Step 2 twice.
When the Standalone Access Point reboots for the fourth time, after having its power
supply interrupted three consecutive times, it restores its factory default settings.
>
Random delays do not occur during normal reboot. Random delay only occurs after
vulnerable period power-down.
>
The restoration of factory default settings does not erase the non-volatile log.
