Reset Button
The Reset button on the front panel of the management module is used to
initialize the AT-S97 Management Software and the active master
configuration file. Here are situations where you might want to reset the
module:
❒
If you select a new active master configuration file and want to
reconfigure the modules in the chassis or stack according to the
settings in the file. For background information, refer to the AT-S85
and AT-S97 Management Software Command Line User’s Guide.
❒
If the management module is experiencing a problem.
Note
The management module will be unresponsive to management
commands for about one minute while it initializes the AT-S97
Management Software. To determine when the module has
completed the initialization process, view the general status LEDs
on the module. For information, refer to “General Status LEDs” on
page 67.
Note
Changes to the parameter settings of the management module (for
example, IP configuration, name, Telnet server status, etc.) that
have not been saved to the active master configuration file are
discarded when you reset the management module. To save your
changes, establish a local or remote management session with the
management module and issue the BOOT CONFIG-FILE SAVE
command. For more information, refer to the AT-S85 and AT-S97
Management Software Command Line User’s Guide.
To prevent someone from accidentally resetting the management module,
the Reset button is recessed in the module. To press the button, use a
pointed object, such as the tip of a pen as shown in Figure 26 on page 64,
or the end of a straightened paper clip.
