4.6 Resetting the Switch

If you lock yourself (and others) from the Switch or forget the Switch password, you will need
to reload the factory-default configuration file or reset the Switch back to the factory defaults.

4.6.1 Reload the Factory-default Configuration File

Uploading the factory-default configuration file replaces the current configuration file with the
factory-default configuration file. This means that you will lose all previous configurations
and the speed of the console port will be reset to the default of 9600bps with 8 data bit, no
parity, one stop bit and flow control set to none. The password will also be reset to "1234" and
the IP address to 192.168.1.1.
