5.13 How to Reset the Switch via the Console Port

If you lock yourself (and others) from the Switch or forget the administrator password, you will need to reload the factory-default configuration file or reset the Switch back to the factory defaults.

Uploading the factory-default configuration file replaces the current configuration file with the factory-default configuration file. This means that you will lose all previous configurations and the speed of the console port will be reset to the default of 9600bps with 8 data bit, no parity, one stop bit and flow control set to none. The password will also be reset to “1234” and the IP address to 192.168.1.1.

To upload the configuration file, do the following:

1Connect to the console port using a computer with terminal emulation software. See Section 3.1.4 on page 20 for details.

2Disconnect and reconnect the Switch’s power to begin a session. When you reconnect the Switch’s power, you will see the initial screen.

3When you see the message “Executing boot script in 3.000 seconds - enter ^C to abort” press the Ctrl-c key combination to stop the automatic boot and then type default.

4Type reset after the “Erase from 0x40080000-0x4017ffff: ................” message.
