• The reset button initializes the following settings: IP address, Ethernet frame size, admin username and password, port
trunking (initial setting: disabled), iSCSI HDD Connection Tool detection (initial setting: enabled). Other settings can be

If you disable resetting the admin password from the reset button, you can no longer configure the TeraStation if you
