Please note the following before performing this procedure:
❑ Returning all parameter settings to their default values also
deletes any port-based or tagged VLANs you created on the
switch.
❑ This procedure does not delete files from the AT-S62 file system.
To delete files, refer to Chapter 11, File System on page 146.
❑ This procedure does not delete any encryption keys stored in the
key database. To delete encryption keys, refer to Deleting an
Encryption Key on page 504.
❑ Returning a switch to its default values does not alter the contents
of the active boot configuration file. To reset the file back to the
default settings, you must must reestablished your management
session after the switch reboots and select Save Configuration

configuration the next time you reset the unit.
The AT-S62 software default values can be found in Appendix A,
