Note: It may take a few seconds for the device to become active. By default the IDS switch will have Rapid Spanning Tree (RSTP) protocol enabled. This protocol will first check the network for any cabling loops prior to bringing the port up, in order to prevent network disruptions. IDS-409G Hardware Installation Guide...
Reset to Factory Default Configuration The switch can be reset to the Factory default configuration. When this is done, all config- uration, user IDs, passwords and security certificates are deleted. The start-up and backup software are unaffected. Follow this procedure: IDS-409G Hardware Installation Guide...
