A rescue configuration is a well-known configuration that recovers a switch from a
configuration that denies management access. You set a current committed configuration
to be the rescue configuration through the J-Web interface or CLI.
If someone inadvertently commits a configuration that denies management access to
an EX Series switch and the console port is not accessible, you can overwrite the invalid
configuration and replace it with the rescue configuration by using the LCD panel on the
switch. The rescue configuration is a previously committed, valid configuration. We
recommend that the rescue configuration include the IP address (accessible from the
network) for the management port.
