This button resets the CPU of the management module. A quick push of this button per-
forms this reset.
When the reset button is pushed on the master management module this management
module is reset becoming the slave and the other management module becomes the mas-
ter.
If there is only one management module in the chassis, when the reset button is pushed,
all of the leafs and ports are reset by bringing them down and powering them up.
When the button is held down for 15 seconds the management module is reset and the
password is deleted. It is then possible to log in without a password and create a new one
for the user admin.

clip.
