Resetting Configuration
This chapter outlines the process for resetting the configuration on an **Alteon Application Switch 5208**. There are different methods for resetting the configuration, including clearing all settings, restoring factory defaults, or performing a soft reset.
Soft Reset (Reboot)
A soft reset allows the switch to reboot without clearing the configuration. It can be used when you need to refresh the system without losing any saved settings.
/reset
Description: This command will reboot the system, retaining all current configurations.
Example:
/reset
After Reboot
Once the switch reboots, you can verify the status with the following command:
/cfg/system/show status
This will display the current state of the system and confirm that the reboot was successful.
Hard Reset (Factory Defaults)
A **hard reset** restores the switch to its factory default settings. This means that all configurations will be lost, and the switch will revert to the default IP address, hostname, and settings.
To perform a factory reset, follow these steps:
1. Connect to the switch via the **console port** using a terminal client like PuTTY or HyperTerminal. 2. Power off the switch. 3. Press and hold the **reset button** on the front panel of the switch. 4. Power the switch on while still holding the reset button for about **10-15 seconds**. 5. Release the reset button. The switch will now boot up with factory default settings.
Alternatively, the following command can be used to perform a hard reset via the CLI:
/cfg/system/reset-factory
Description: This command will erase all configurations and reset the switch to its factory defaults.
Example:
/cfg/system/reset-factory
After this process, the switch will require reconfiguration from scratch, including setting the management IP, hostname, and network settings.
Verify Reset to Factory Defaults
To confirm that the switch has been reset to factory defaults, you can check the configuration:
/cfg/system/show running-config
This should show minimal or default configurations such as the default IP address `192.168.1.1`, default hostname, and other initial settings.
Resetting Specific Configuration Elements
In some cases, you might only need to reset certain elements, such as VLAN configurations or interfaces, rather than the entire system.
Reset VLAN Configuration
To remove a specific VLAN configuration, use the following command:
/cfg/network/vlan <vlan_id>/reset
Example:
/cfg/network/vlan 100/reset
This command will reset the specified VLAN to its default settings.
Reset Interface Configuration
To reset an individual interface configuration, use the following command:
/cfg/network/port <port_number>/reset
Example:
/cfg/network/port 5/reset
This will reset the settings for that particular interface, including IP addresses, VLAN assignments, and other configurations.
Clearing the Configuration from the Flash Memory
If you want to delete the current configuration completely from the switch's flash memory, use the following command:
/cfg/system/clear-flash
Description: This command will completely clear the configuration stored in the flash memory, requiring a reboot to apply the changes.
Example:
/cfg/system/clear-flash
Once the configuration is cleared, the system will boot with the default configuration.
Important Notes
- **Backup Configurations**: Before performing any reset actions, it is crucial to back up your current configuration to avoid losing important settings. Use the following command to back up to a TFTP server:
/cfg/system/backup tftp <tftp_ip> <backup_filename>
- **Reconfiguration**: After performing a hard reset, you will need to reconfigure the switch from scratch. This includes setting up VLANs, IP addresses, HA groups, and other configurations.
