How to Start an AT-GS950/24 WEB Management Session

Returning the AT-S109 Management Software to the Factory Default Values

This procedure returns all AT-S109 Management software parameters to their default values and deletes all tagged and port-based VLANs on the switch.

This procedure causes the switch to reboot. The switch does not forward network traffic during the reboot process. Some network traffic may be lost.

To return the AT-S109 Management software to the default settings, do the following procedure:

1.From the Tools folder, select Reboot.

The Reboot Page is shown in Figure 14 on page 32.

2.For the Reboot Type field, use the pull-down menu to select one of the following:

Factory Default

Resets all switch parameters to the factory default settings, including the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address.

Warning

This setting will cause the IP address to be reset to 192.168.1.1. You will loose connectivity with the switch management software after the reboot is completed

Factory Default Except IP Address

Resets all switch parameters to the factory default settings, but retains the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway settings. If the DHCP client is enabled, it remains enabled after this reset.

3.For the Reboot Status field, use the pull-down menu to select Start to begin the reboot.

4.Click Apply.

The switch is rebooted. You must wait for the switch to complete the reboot process before establishing your management session again.
