How to reset a Tesira device to factory defaults
The factory reset feature quickly clears all user data from Tesira devices, restoring them to their factory default settings.
The article covers the effects of a factory reset and how to reset several Tesira devices.

The factory reset permanently clears all user data from your Tesira device. If you need to keep the configuration file,
please save it to a PC before performing the reset. The configuration file cannot be recovered from any Biamp Tesira

Network settings
The factory reset procedure will affect the networking settings of your Tesira device.
The Host Name will change back into the default format: for example TesiraForte01234567. The device description will
be emptied.
