Enabling and disabling the interfaces

By default, all interfaces are disabled. To enable an interface, you must enter the enable command
at the appropriate interface configuration level of the CLI. For example, to enable the management
interface, enter the enable command at the management interface configuration level of the CLI.

Brocade(config-if-mgmt-1)# enable

Syntax: enable

You can disable each of these interfaces using the disable command at the appropriate interface
configuration level of the CLI. For example, to disable the management port, enter the disable
command at the management interface configuration level of the CLI.

Brocade(config-if-mgmt-1)# disable

Syntax: disable

NOTE

For security reasons, by default, the telnet server is disabled on the devices. To enable the telnet
server and allow access through telnet to the device from an external host, execute the following.

Brocade

(config)# telnet server

Factory Reset Procedure

The following procedure applies to most managed switches and routers.

CAUTION

Some commands may vary between vendors.

From a directly attached serial connection:

1. At the opening CLI prompt, save the current configuration to a TFTP server or other remote

device.

2. Enter the following command at the Privileged EXEC level prompt, then press Enter. This

command erases the factory test configuration if still present.

Brocade# erase startup-config

NOTE

Do not execute write memory.

CAUTION

Use the erase startup-config command only for new systems. If you enter this command on a
system you have already configured, the command erases the configuration. If you accidentally
erase the configuration on a configured system, and decide to abort this factory reset procedure,
enter the write memory command to save the running configuration to the startup-config file.

3. Enter the following command at the Privileged EXEC level prompt, then press Enter:

Brocade# reload
