Resetting the device to default settings with the button (in the
startup phase)
NOTICE
Connection hazard - risk of communication failure
Depending on the configuration of your network, a reset device can cause circular frames and
thus the loss of data traffic.
NOTICE
Configuration hazard - risk of data loss
If a CLP is inserted in the device, the CLP is also reset to default settings.
Note
When you reset the device to the default settings, all configurations are deleted, including:
• The IP address
• The created user
• The passwords
• The user-defined keys and certificates
Following this, the device can only be reached via the serial interface.
If you assign an IP address to the device via DHCP or DCP (e.g. SINEC PNI), you can access the CLI
and WBM of the device via a network connection with a preset user profile.
Note
Reset despite disabled "SELECT/SET" button
Using the "SELECT/SET" button, you can always reset the device parameters to the factory
settings during the startup phase of the device. This applies also if the "Reset to Factory Defaults"
function was disabled in the configuration. This allows you to reset the device to the factory
defaults in an emergency.
If the function has been disabled in the configuration, it is only disabled on completion of the
startup phase.
