Reset Configuration

Note:

You must have maintenance authorization feature permissions to access this

feature.

This option resets all configuration data input through options in the
Configuration menu, zoning configurations, and switch addressing to
factory-default values. Since the current IP address for the switch may not match
the factory default address, the Ethernet link between the switch and the HAFM
appliance may drop and not reset.

Before using this option, record the switch’s current IP address, which displays
below the switch’s icon in the HAFM Physical/Topology Map view (Display
Options
set to Network Address). You can also find the current IP address
through the EWS interface.

After resetting the configuration, you must reset the original address on the switch
through the maintenance port or the EWS interface to maintain LAN connections
and communication with the HAFM appliance.

Use the following procedure to reset your product configuration:

1. Set the switch offline. For instructions, see “

Set Online State

” on page 166.

2. Click Maintenance > Reset Configuration. The following warning displays:

Caution:

This operation will reset all switch configuration data and

non-volatile settings to factory default values. All optional features will also be

disabled. The switch must be offline to continue.

Note:

If you have enabled features that add additional port function since the switch

was shipped from the factory, these features will be disabled (factory default) when the

configuration is reset. Only those ports that were enabled at the factory will function.

You will have to enable the additional port function features again through the

Configure Feature Key dialog box. See “

Configuring a Feature Key

” on page 131 for

more information.
