Reset And Clear Buttons - HP Aruba 3810M Series Installation And Getting Started Manual

Stacking Notes:
For 3810M switches that are in a stack, the Mode select button on every switch in the stack
controls the LED mode for all the switches in the stack. Using the Mode select button on
one switch in the stack changes the LED mode for the entire stack.
If there is a combination of PoE/PoE+ switches and non-PoE switches in the stack, when
any of the Mode select buttons is pressed to put the stack into PoE mode, the non-PoE
switches indicate no PoE support by not illuminating any of the Mode indicator LEDs or any
of the port LEDs.
If any of the switches in the stack are configured with the Save Power LED feature, then
the default LED Mode for the whole stack becomes the Save Power display (all LED Mode
indicator LEDs are off), but only the stack members on which that feature is configured
display the other characteristics of that feature (all LEDs Off except for the Power LED).

The Reset and Clear buttons are recessed from the front panel (to protect them from being
pushed accidentally) and are accessible through small holes on the top of the front panel. Use
pointed objects, such as unbent paper clips, to push them.
