Restoring to Factory Default

To restore the system to a particular image with factory defaults, restore the system from rescue mode
with the upgrade image as the restore image.
For example, if the system needs to be restored to factory default image V9.21, enter the rescue mode,
follow the procedure to restore the backup image (as explained in
Rescue Mode on page 18) and, instead of selecting the backup image, provide the upgrade image V9.21
(local, flash or download from FTP), and perform the restore. The system is restored to the V9.21 with
factory default values.
Be aware that restoring a system to factory defaults means that the configuration is lost including the
IP connectivity, certificates, and licenses. Restoring to factory default is possible only from rescue
mode.
