The Reset-Clear combination erases the current configuration and

 

replaces it with the default (factory) configuration. In this case, bridging

 

(without spanning tree) is enabled on all ports. However, routing is not

been enabled on the network. (If Smartboot has been enabled, bridging

 

may or may not be enabled, depending upon the resulting configuration.)
