Reset Button

The switch has a recessed reset button labelled RST that is located on the front panel. Pressing the reset button resets the hardware and software and clears all tables and memory, including the address tables. Pressing the reset button does not clear those values stored in non-volatile random access memory (NVRAM).

System Request Button

This unlabelled recessed button is located on the front panel above the reset button. Pressing the button causes the System Request menu to appear on the console device attached to the MANAGEMENT port. Pressing the button for more than five seconds will initiate a modem download of the main image.

➽Note: The system request button should be used only at the direction of service personnel. The button is recessed to prevent accidental activation.

Labels

The two labels in the right side of the front panel are:

•The MAC Address Label:

The unique globally assigned base Base MAC-Address of the switch.

•The Switch Number Label:

Blank label for an individual user identification of the switch.
