„Reset a Router (see page 2-9)

„Reset and Select Boot Image (see page 2-9)

„Reset IP Address (see section page 2-9)

„Enable DHCP (see section page 2-9)

„Restore Factory Defaults (see page 2-9)

Reset a Router

To reset the router, use a pointed, nonmetallic tool to momentarily press and release (less than two seconds) the maintenance button. The router responds as follows:

1.All the chassis LEDs illuminate.

2.After about two seconds, the POST begins, turning off the heartbeat and system fault LEDs.

3.When the POST is complete, the power LED is on and the heartbeat LED flashes once per second.

Reset and Select Boot Image

You can reset the router using either the primary or secondary boot image:

„Primary Image – To reset the router and select the primary boot image, use a pointed, nonmetallic tool to press and hold the maintenance button until the heartbeat LED flashes once, then release the button. The router boots from the primary boot image. The boot time is less than one minute.

„Secondary Image – To reset the router and select the secondary boot image, use a pointed, nonmetallic tool to press and hold the maintenance button until the heartbeat LED flashes twice, then release the button. The heartbeat LED flashes twice. The router boots from the secondary boot image. The boot time is less than one minute.

Reset IP Address

To reset the router and restore the maintenance port IP address to the default

(10.0.0.1), use a pointed, nonmetallic tool to press and hold the maintenance button until the heartbeat LED flashes six times, then release the button. The router boots and sets the maintenance port to IP address 10.0.0.1. The boot time is less than one minute.
