FireBrick FB2900 Quick Start Manual

Factory Reset - config recovery
The FireBrick has a simple factory reset process to allow you to reconnect using the default IP
addresses as defined overleaf. 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 remove any SFP or USB devices.
2. Connect a lead between port 1 and 4.
Make sure this is a full cat5 cable (all
wires).
3. Connect power and wait a few
seconds for all port LEDs to be on
steadily. Status LED blinks. You have 40
seconds for next step.
4. Disconnect loop, leave power
connected. Port LEDs will go green for 5
seconds to confirm, then status LED
stops flashing and port LEDs cycle.
5. Connect network to port 1 or port 4 as
per instructions overleaf.
Resetting using ports 1 and 4, as above, will start the FireBrick in a factory reset
configuration. Follow the instructions overleaf to access the configuration 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 the web interface allows you to recover the latest saved configuration if you
have a username and password. You can edit this to correct any mistakes and save this as
the new configuration.
Full reset
Using ports 1 and 2 will perform a permanent full factory reset rather than a recovery mode.
