Factory default on L208-F2G-S2-EX
It is possible to set the product to factory default settings by using two straight standard
Ethernet RJ-45 cables.
1. Power off the switch and disconnect all Ethernet cables (copper and fibre).
2. Connect one Ethernet cable between Ethernet ports 3 and 6, and the other between
Ethernet ports 4 and 5.
The ports need to be connected directly by an Ethernet cable, i.e., not via a hub or
switch. Use a straight cable - not a cross-over cable - when connecting the ports.
3. Power on the product.
4. Wait for the product to start up. Control that the ON LED is flashing red.
The ON LED flashing indicates that the product is now ready to be reset to factory
default. You now have the choice to go ahead with the factory reset, or to skip
factory reset and boot as normal.
• Go ahead with factory reset:
Acknowledge that you wish to conduct the factory reset by unplugging the
Ethernet cables. The ON LED will stop flashing.
This initiates the factory reset process*, and after approximately 1 minute the
product will restart with factory default settings. When the switch has booted up,
the ON LED will show a green light, and is now ready to use.
• Skip the factory reset:
To skip the factory reset process, just wait for approximately 30 seconds
(after the ON LED starts flashing RED) without unplugging the Ethernet cables.
The switch will conduct a normal boot with the existing settings.
