Reverting to the EX Series Switch Factory-Default Configuration Using the load
factory-default Command
The load factory-default command is a standard Junos OS configuration command that replaces the
current active configuration with the factory-default configuration (except the root password setting,
which by default is not set but which you must set in order to commit the new configuration in this
procedure).
If you want to run the EZsetup script to complete the initial configuration of the switch after you revert
to the factory-default configuration, do not use the load factory-default command. Instead do the
reversion using either the LCD panel or the request system zeroize command. If you use the load factory-
default command to revert to the factory-default configuration, the configuration for the root password
is retained and the EZsetup script will not run. (The EZsetup script is available only on fixed
configuration switches, it is not available on modular switches.)
NOTE: The load factory-default command by itself is not supported on EX3300, EX4200, EX4500,
and EX4550 switches configured in a Virtual Chassis.
To revert to the factory-default configuration by using the load factory-default command:
NOTE: If you use this procedure, you must delete the system commit factory settings, set the
root password, and commit the configuration. These steps are not required when you revert to
the factory-default configuration by using request system zeroize. Also, the auto-image-upgrade
statement is not added to the configuration when you use this procedure; it
configuration when you use request system zeroize.
