Reset Button
The
RST
button on the front panel has three functions on ICR-3200 routers:
•
Reboot the router:
Hold the
RST
button for less than 4 seconds, the router will be restarted.
•
Factory reset – restore the default configuration:
Hold the
RST
button for more than 4 seconds. The
PWR
LED turns off and on
again. We recommend holding down the
RST
button for 1 second after turning on the
PWR LED on the front panel.
•
Factory reset – restore the default configuration when unable to boot:
If the router is unable to boot due to a bad configuration, turn off the router (power
supply). Push and hold the
RST
button, turn on the router and hold the
RST
button for
at least 10 seconds. This will return the router to default configuration.
Before performing the factory reset of the router, it is recommended to back up the router
configuration settings (see Configuration manual for ICR-3200 routers) because reset of
the router will return all configuration settings to their default states.
In order to press the
RST
button it is necessary to use a narrow screwdriver or any other small
tool.
