Using the Switch from a Remote Console

Restoring Factory Defaults

The “Restore Factory Settings” section below 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 IP Device for five seconds while powering up the IP Device. The IP Device will boot up in safe mode.

2.Wait 30 seconds for the IP Device to reboot.

3.If a DHCP server is available, the IP Device will pick up an IP address from it. If there is no DHCP server, the IP Device boots with static IP address: 192.168.2.155.

4.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.

5.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.

6.From the menu, select “Restore Factory Settings”. A warning will appear advising you that all device data will be erased.

7.Click “Restore”. The factory defaults will be restored. When the process finishes, you will be prompted to reboot.

8.Click “Reboot” to restart the IP Device.
