Initializing the Switch 3000 10/100
This screen allows you to perform a reset as
described in the previous section, and in addition,
returns non-volatile data stored on the unit to its
factory defaults (shown on
page 1-11 ). Note that
the IP address is not cleared. You should only initial-
ize the Switch if:
■
The configuration of the device no longer suits
your network.
■
Other efforts to solve problems have not suc-
ceeded.
To initialize the Switch:
1
From the Main Menu, select the INITIALIZE option.
The Initialize screen is displayed as shown in
Figure 4-19 .
2
Select OK.
CAUTION:
Use the Initialize option with great care.
The Switch configuration is cleared from memory
and cannot be recovered. After initialization, all
user information is lost and only default users are
available. All ports are set to their default values,
and are therefore enabled and available to all users.
When initializing the Switch, take particular note of
the following:
■
Network loops occur if you have set up resilient
links. Before initializing the Switch, ensure you
have disconnected the cabling for all your
standby links.

■
VLT ports fail and you are not able to manage
the Switch if your management station communi-
cates via the VLT. To avoid this:
a
Remove the VLT configuration from both ends of
the VLT link before you initialize the Switch.
Note that the port furthest from your manage-
ment station should have its VLT configuration
removed first.
b
Reconfigure the VLT once the initialization is com-
plete.
