NETGEAR FVS318N manual Revert to Factory Default Settings, 342

ProSafe Wireless-N 8-Port Gigabit VPN Firewall FVS318N

WARNING:

Once you start restoring settings, do not interrupt the process. Do not try to go online, turn off the wireless VPN firewall, shut down the computer, or do anything else to the wireless VPN firewall until the settings have been fully restored.

Revert to Factory Default Settings

To reset the wireless VPN firewall to the original factory defaults settings: Use one of the following two methods:

•Using a sharp object, press and hold the factory default Reset button on the rear panel of the wireless VPN firewall (see Rear Panel on page 18) for about 8 seconds until the Test LED turns on and begins to blink (about 30 seconds). To restore the factory default settings when you do not know the administration password or IP address, you need to use the factory default Reset button method.

•On the Settings Backup and Firmware Upgrade screen (see the previous figure), next to Revert to factory defaults settings, click the Default button, and confirm your selection.

The wireless VPN firewall reboots. If you use the software Default button, the Settings Backup and Firmware Upgrade screen might remain visible during the reboot process, or a status message with a counter might show the number of seconds left until the reboot process is complete. The reboot process takes about 165 seconds. (If you can see the unit: The reboot process is complete when the Test LED on the front panel goes off.)

WARNING:

When you press the hardware factory default Reset button or click the software Default button, the wireless VPN firewall settings are erased. All firewall rules, VPN policies, LAN and WAN settings, and other settings are lost. Back up your settings if you intend on using them.

Note: After you reboot with factory default settings, the wireless VPN firewall’s password is password, and the LAN IP address is 192.168.1.1.
