Configuration License Plug - Siemens SCALANCE MUM853-1 Operating Instructions Manual

Function
The reset button has the following functions:
• Restarting the device
To restart the device, press the reset button briefly.
Note
If you make changes to the configuration and restart immediately afterwards with the reset
button, the changes may be lost. If you restart the device using the WBM (menu command
"System > Restart") or using the CLI (command "restart" in the Privileged EXEC Modus), the
configuration changes are always retained.
• Loading a firmware file via TFTP
If the normal procedure with the "Load & Save" menu of Web Based Management is
unsuccessful, the reset button can be used to load new firmware. This situation can occur if
there is a power outage during the normal firmware update. You can find more detailed
information in the section "Downloading new firmware using TFTP without WBM and CLI
(Page 63)".
• Resetting the device to factory settings
If you reset, all the settings you have made will be overwritten by factory defaults. If a PLUG
is inserted in the device, the PLUG is also reset to default settings. You can find additional
information in the section "Restoring the factory settings (Page 64)".
NOTICE
Inadvertent reset
An inadvertent reset can cause disturbances and failures in a configured network with further
consequences.
