Configdefault - Brocade Communications Systems Brocade 8/12c Command Reference Manual

configDefault

Resets the nonpersistent configuration data to factory defaults.
SYNOPSIS
configdefault [-fid FID | -all | -switch]
DESCRIPTION
Use this command to reset the nonpersistent configuration settings to their factory default values.
Configuration data is grouped into chassis information and switch information. Each configuration type is
managed separately. The behavior of configDefault depends on the environment in which the command
is executed:
•

This command resets nonpersistent configuration parameters only. The following parameters are not
affected by this command:

Refer to the help files for configure and configureChassis help for more information on default values
for configuration parameters.
NOTES
This command cannot be executed on an enabled switch. You must first disable the switch using
switchDisable or chassisDisable.
Some configuration parameters are cached by the system. To avoid unexpected system behavior, reboot
the system after executing configDefault.
Note that configDefault does not completely remove all FCIP tunnels and GbE IP address information.
This may be an issue when attempting to use the same information to create new tunnels or modify the
existing ones.
When issuing configDefault on the Brocade FR4-18i blade, this command persistently disables the
ports.
Fabric OS Command Reference
53-1001764-01
In a Virtual Fabric environment, when executed without operands, this command resets the switch
configuration to default values on the current logical switch only. An Admin with chassis permissions
can use additional parameters to reset configuration data for a specified logical switch (-fid FID) or
for all logical switches and the chassis (-all).
In a non-Virtual Fabric environment, when executed without operands, this command resets the
switch configuration. When executed with the -all operand, configDefault resets all of the system's
configuration data, including chassis and switch configurations. The -switch option resets the switch
configuration only. The -fid option is not valid.
