About the Mode Switches

Figure B‐1 on page B‐3 shows the locations of the mode switches and the switch settings for
normal operation. These switches are set at the factory and rarely need to be changed.
Switch definitions and positions are as follows:
• Switches 1– 6: For Enterasys Networks use only.
• Switch 7: Clear Persistent Data. Changing the position of this switch clears Persistent Data on
the next power‐up of the SSA. All user‐entered parameters, such as the IP address, system
name, and so on, are reset to the factory default settings. Once the system resets, you can
either use the factory default settings or reenter your own parameters.
• Switch 8: Clear Admin Password. Changing the position of this switch clears the admin
password, and restores the factory default password on the next power‐up of the system.
Once the SSA resets, you can either use the factory default settings or reenter your own
password.

its factory default setting.
