Factory Reset

The FireBrick has a simple factory reset process to erase the configuration
allowing you to reconnect using the default IP addresses as defined over-
leaf. This process can be very useful if you ever make an error in the
configuration that stops you having access to the FireBrick for any reason.
1. Disconnect all network and
power leads and any
USB devices.
2. Connect lead between
far left and far right port.
3. Connect power and wait
a few seconds for all port
LEDs to be on steadily.
Power LED blinks.
4. Disconnect loop, leave
power connected. LEDs
cycle and power LED
blinks.
5.
Connect network to port 1
or port 4 as per instructions
overleaf. Power LED comes
on solidly.
Resetting using ports 1 and 4, as above, will start the FireBrick in a factory
reset configuration. Follow the instructions overleaf to access the configura-
tion web interface. You can also start the FireBrick using the "last but one"
configuration by using ports 1 and 3. This is temporary, and if you restart the
FireBrick without having saved a new configuration then it will revert to the
latest saved configuration.
In either case you have the opportunity to recover the latest saved configu-
ration if you have a username and password. You can then correct any
mistakes and save this as the new configuration.
Using ports 1 and 2 will perform a permanent factory reset rather than a recovery mode.
