Restoring the Factory Default
Configuration
As part of your troubleshooting process, it may become necessary to return
the switch configuration to the factory default settings. This process momen-
tarily interrupts the switch operation, clears any passwords, clears the console
event log, resets the network counters to zero, performs a complete self test,
and reboots the switch into its factory default configuration including deleting
an IP address, if one is configured.
N o t e
This process removes all switch configuration changes that you have made
from the factory default settings. This includes, for example, configuration of
VLANs, spanning tree, trunks, stacking, routing, and security. Returning the
configuration of these features to their factory default settings (usually
disabling them) may result in network connectivity issues.
If the switch has a valid configuration, and you are restoring the factory default
settings for a reason other than configuration problems, you should save the
switch configuration prior to performing the factory default reset. Then, after
the reset and resolution of the original problem, you can restore the saved
configuration to the switch. For both the save and restore processes, you can
use the console
copy
command. See the
Management and Configuration
Guide
for your switch, available on the ProCurve Web site, for more informa-
tion on this command.
You can restore the factory default configuration either on the switch itself or
through the switch console.
To execute the factory default reset on the switch, perform these steps:
1.
Using pointed objects, simultaneously press both the Reset and Clear
buttons on the front of the switch.
2.
Continue to press the Clear button while releasing the Reset button.
3.
As soon as the Self Test LED begins to blink, release the Clear button.
The switch will then complete its self test and begin operating with its
configuration restored to the factory default settings.
To restore the factory default configuration using the console, execute the
erase startup-config
command from the console command prompt. Then
reboot so that the factory default startup configuration takes effect.
