Resetting the switch manually
In some situations, you may be unable to use the reset factory command to restore
factory defaults. For example, if you don’t remember the admin password, you cannot
enter administrator mode to use the reset factory command. You can recover the
switch using maintenance mode, which temporarily returns the switch IP address to
10.0.0.1.
To recover a switch, do the following:
1. Place the switch in maintenance mode. Press and hold the Maintenance button with
a pointed tool for 2–7 seconds. When the Heartbeat LED alone is illuminated,
release the button.
2. Allow one minute for the switch to complete its tests. When the switch is in
maintenance mode, the Heartbeat LED illuminates continuously. All other chassis
LEDs are extinguished.
3. Establish a Telnet session with the switch using the maintenance mode IP address
10.0.0.1.
4. Enter the maintenance mode account name and password (prom, prom), and press
the Enter key.
Switch login: prom
Password:xxxx
5. The maintenance menu displays several recovery options. To select a switch
recovery option, press the corresponding number (displayed in option: field) on the
keyboard and press the Enter key.
