Read this before resetting to factory defaults
Resetting an AP to factory defaults has the following effects:
 The AP is returned to controlled mode operation. If required, switch the AP back to
autonomous mode as described in the product Quickstart.
 All user-defined configuration settings are deleted and returned to factory default
settings, which includes:
 User-installed licenses are deactivated but are not deleted. You must manually enable
these licenses once the AP has restarted. (Factory-installed licenses are always active.)
Resetting to factory defaults
Use the procedures in this section to set an AP to its factory default settings.

Using the reset button

Note
Not applicable to ruggedized APs.
This technique forces the AP into its factory defaults state including switching the AP back
into controlled mode.
Using a tool such as a paper clip, press and hold the reset button for a few seconds until the
front status lights blink three times.

Using the management tool

Launch the management tool (default https://192.168.1.1).
To reset the AP to factory defaults, keeping it in autonomous mode, follow this procedure:
1. Select Maintenance > Config file management.
D-2
 The manager username and password are set to admin.
 The DHCP client is enabled on any Ethernet ports. If no DHCP server assigns an
address to the AP, its address defaults to 192.168.1.1.
