Using the Switch from a Remote Console
Restoring Factory Defaults
The “Restore Factory Settings” section on page 42 explains how to restore
factory settings from the web interface. When you cannot access the system
(you have forgotten the user name, IP address, or password), you can restore
factory defaults from the Switch.
To restore factory defaults:
1. Press and hold down the “Go-Local” button on the back of the Switch for
five seconds while powering up the Switch. The Switch will boot up in
safe mode.
2. Wait 30 seconds for the Switch to reboot.
3. Log in with the default IP address of the unit:
http://192.168.2.155/config
The blank login screen will appear (no background picture).
Note: Do not start the IP address with https.
4. Type in the following default user name and password (case-sensitive),
and click “Login”. This user name and password only work immediately
after the reset procedure described above.
Safe-Mode User Safe-Mode Password
admin SAFEmode
5. From the menu, select “Restore Factory Settings”. A warning will appear
advising you that all device data will be erased.
6. Click “Restore”. The factory defaults will be restored. When the process
finishes, you will be prompted to reboot.
7. Click “Reboot” to restart the Switch.
