24-Port and 48-Port Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ Smart Switches with 4 SFP Ports or 4 10G SFP+ Ports
Dual-function Factory Defaults button
The switch provides a dual-function Factory Defaults button on the front panel.
Depending on how long you press the button (for details, see the following procedure),
this button lets you perform the following tasks:
• Reset the switch to factory default settings but maintain the registration status:
All settings are erased and the switch restarts with factory default settings. The
NETGEAR registration status is maintained and not reset.
• Reset the switch to factory default settings and reset the registration status: All
settings are erased, the switch restarts with factory default settings, and the NETGEAR
registration status is reset. You must reregister the switch with NETGEAR.
To reset the switch:
1. Insert a tool such as a straightened paper clip into the opening.
2. Do one of the following:
• Reset the switch to factory default settings but maintain the registration
status: Press the Factory Defaults button for more than one second but less
than 10 seconds. (Do not press the button for more than 10 seconds!)
• Reset the switch to factory default settings and reset the registration status:
Press the Factory Defaults button for more than 10 seconds.
When the switch restarts, the Power LED lights yellow.
USB port
The switch provides one USB 2.0 port that lets you upgrade firmware from a disk, back
up the configuration to a storage device, and allow for the collection of a memory dump
for debugging purposes.
A device that you attach to the USB port must comply with the following requirements:
• The USB device must support USB 2.0.
• The USB device must support the FAT32 or VFAT file type. The NTFS file type is not
supported.
Because of hardware limitations, the write and read speed to and from a USB device is
about 1 Mbps.
