Password Protection of Factory Reset
If your switch is located in a controlled environment such as a locked
switching closet or limited access equipment room, it may be desirable to
have the ability to easily reset the switch to factory defaults at any time by
using either the front panel ecofriendly switch or the AT-S112
management software.
However, if your switch is installed in an uncontrolled environment, you
may want to protect the switch’s configuration from unwanted or
accidental resets. The AT-S112 management software allows you to
disable the factory default reset feature and lock it with your own
password. When this is done, two areas are affected:
The reset and factory default reset features on the
front panel ecofriendly switch are disabled.
The factory default reset feature in the AT-S112
management software is disabled. However, you can
still reset the switch via the management software
without affecting the switch’s configuration.
The factory default reset can be enabled again by using the password that
you initially defined when disabling this function.
Caution
Since you define this password as part of the process of disabling
this function, Allied Telesis has no knowledge of it. You are
responsible for keeping the password in a safe place. If it is lost,
Allied Telesis does not have a way to help you recover it.
See “Disabling Factory Default Reset Feature” on page 342 for
information about how to disable the factory default reset feature.
Disabling Factory
Default Reset
Feature
The factory default reset feature allows anyone to reset the switch to the
factory default configuration. You may disable this feature. More details
are available concerning “Password Protection of Factory Reset” on
page 342.
To disable the factory default reset feature, perform the following
procedure:
1. From the main menu on the left side of the page, select the
Tools
folder.
The
Tools
folder expands.
