The Software Reset 2 button (
TP12
) reset hole, which resets both boot loader settings and RouterOS setting
by default, can be disabled in this menu (it will still reset the boot loader settings).
Software Reset
It is possible to reset all software configuration by using the Software Reset 2 button hole (
C229, see
schematic
) during the power-up. No confirmation or passwords will be asked, so use with caution. This
feature can be disabled in the “
system routerboard settings
” menu by switching the “
enable-jumper-
reset
” parameter to “
no
”. Simply use a metal object to short circuit the metallic reset hole (TP12) while
booting.
DIP Switch
The DIP switch can be used to control the RB1000 CPU frequency. Use this switch with extreme caution, as
only the mentioned configurations will provide any useful result, other settings can damage your device.
