D-Link DGS-3224SR Layer 2 Gigabit Ethernet Switch
The switch has two levels of memory, normal RAM and non-volatile or NV-RAM. To save all the changes made
in the current session to the Switch's flash memory, click the Save Configuration button. Click the OK button
in the new dialog box that appears to continue. When this is done, the settings will be immediately applied to the
switching software in RAM, and will immediately take effect. Once the switch configuration settings have been
saved to NV-RAM, they become the default settings for the switch. These settings will be used every time the
switch is rebooted.
Some settings, though, require you to restart the switch before they will take effect. Restarting the switch erases
all settings in RAM and reloads the stored settings from the NV-RAM. Thus, it is necessary to save all setting
changes to NV-RAM before rebooting the switch.
To save settings using CLI the command is save.
Factory Reset
Click the Factory Reset link in the Maintenance folder to bring up the reset menu.
Figure 3-10. Factory Reset to Default Value
Reset − returns all configuration settings except the switch's IP address, subnet mask, default gateway, log, user
account and stack information settings to the factory default settings.
Reset Config − returns all configuration settings except the stack information settings to the factory default
settings, but does not save the settings or reboot the switch. If you select this option the switch configuration will
be returned to the factory default settings for the current session only. When the switch is rebooted, it will return
to the last configuration saved to the switch's NV-RAM using the Save Changes option.
Reset System − returns switch configuration to the factory default settings and then saves the factory default
configuration to the switch's NV-RAM. The switch will then reboot. When the switch has rebooted, it will have
the same configuration as when it was delivered from the factory.
Restart System
The following menu is used to restart the switch. Access this menu by clicking on the Reboot Device link in the
Maintenance folder.
Click the Yes after Do you want to save the settings? to instruct the switch to save the current configuration to
non-volatile RAM before restarting the switch.
Clicking the No option instructs the switch not to save the current configuration before restarting the switch. All
of the configuration information entered since the last time Save Changes was executed will be lost.
