Returning the AT-S63 Management Software to the Factory Default
Values
The procedure in this section returns all AT-S63 Management Software
parameters to their default values. Note the following before performing
this procedure:
ˆ Returning the switch to its default parameter settings deletes all routing
interfaces and port-based and tagged VLANs on the switch.
ˆ Returning the switch to its default parameter settings does not delete
files from the switch’s file system or encryption keys from the key
database. For instructions on how to delete files, refer to the AT-S63
Management Software Menus Interface User’s Guide or the AT-S63
Management Software Command Line Interface User’s Guide.
ˆ The speed of the Terminal Port on the switch is not changed.
ˆ Returning a switch to its default values does not alter the contents of
the active boot configuration file. To reset the file to the default settings,
you must establish a local or remote management session with the
switch after it reboots and select Save Config from the menu.
Otherwise, the switch reverts back to the previous configuration the
next time you reset or power cycle the unit.
ˆ If the switch is an isolated switch (i.e., a switch that is not a part of an
enhanced stack) or the master switch of an enhanced stack, it is
unlikely you will be able to reestablish your web browser management
session at the completion of this procedure, because all routing
interfaces are deleted. You must use a local management session to
continue managing the switch.
Caution
This procedure involves a switch reset. Some network traffic may be
lost while the unit initializes its management software and loads the
default configuration settings, a process that takes approximately 20
seconds to complete.
Note
The AT-S63 Management Software default values are listed in
Appendix A, “AT-S63 Default Settings” in the AT-S63 Management
Software Features Guide.
To return the AT-S63 Management Software to the default settings,
perform the following procedure:
1. From the home page, select Configuration.
