Dimension ES-2024 Ethernet Switch
4-6 Introducing the Web Configurator
If you lock yourself (and others) from the switch, you will need to reload the factory-default configuration file.
Uploading the factory-default configuration file replaces the current configuration file with the factory-default
configuration file. This means that you will lose all previous configurations and the speed of the console port will
be reset to the default of 9600bps with 8 data bit, no parity, one stop bit and flow control set to none. The
password will also be reset to “1234” and the IP address to 192.168.1.1.
4.5.1 Resetting the Switch Via Command
If you know the ES-2024’s password, you can reload the factory-default configuration file via Command Line
Interface (CLI) command. Use the following procedure.
Step 1. Connect to the console port using a computer with terminal emulation software. See the chapter on
hardware connections for details.
Step 2. Enter your password.
Step 3. Type sys romreset.
Step 4. Type y at the question “Do you want to restore default ROM file(y/n)?”
Step 5. The switch restarts.
Figure 4-4 Resetting the Switch Via Command
The switch is now reinitialized with a default configuration file including the default password of “1234”.
4.5.2 Uploading the Default Configuration File Via Console Port
If you forget the ES-2024 password, you will need to reload the factory-default configuration file via console port.
Use the following procedure.
Step 1. Connect to the console port using a computer with terminal emulation software. See the chapter on
hardware connections for details.
Step 2. Disconnect and reconnect the switch’s power to begin a session. When you reconnect the switch’s power,
you will see the initial screen.
Step 3. When you see the message “Press any key to enter Debug Mode within 3 seconds”
press any key to enter debug mode.
