Chapter 3: Configuring and monitoring the LANCOM Switch
3.3
Save/Restore
The switch supports three copies of configuration, including the default con-
figuration, working configuration and user configuration for your configura-
tion management. All of them are listed and described below respectively.

This is the default configuration and it cannot be altered. The web user
interface has the following options to restore the switch to its default
setting.
With the function "restore default configuration included default IP
address" you can reset the switch to the factory default settings
(including the administrator´s password and the auto DHCP setting).
With the function "restore default configuration without changing
current IP address" you can reset the switch to the factory default set-
tings, but without changing the IP address. You can access the switch
at its last IP address.
With the serial configuration interface you can reset the switch to the
factory default setting, without knowing the current administrator´s
password. To do this you have to set up a serial connection to the
device as described in
connection'. In the terminal program, before you enter the username
press CTRL+Z, enter "RESET" as the username and the MAC address
(without blank characters) as the password.
This action starts the reset process and all settings will be reset to the
factory default state, including the administrator´s password and the
auto DHCP setting.
Default Configuration:
This is ex-factory setting and cannot be altered. In Web UI, two restore
default functions are offered for the user to restore to the default setting
of the switch. One is the function of "Restore Default Configuration inclu-
ding default IP address", the IP address will restore to default
"192.168.1.1" as you use it. The other is the function of "Restore Default
Configuration without changing current IP address", the IP address will
keep the same one that you had saved before by performing this function.
Working Configuration:
It is the configuration you are using currently and can be changed any
time. The configurations you are using are saved into this configuration
file. This is updated each time as you press <Apply> button.
