Reset Appliance Mode

On the appliance's LCD, reset the server mode (personality). See the installa-
tion guide for instructions on setting and changing the personality.
Changing the appliance server mode (personality) resets the passwords, but
it also restores the entire system to the default state—deleting data and
erasing configuration settings.

Resetting the NAC 800 Database Password

The NAC 800 database password is set during the install process. You can not
change your database password with NAC 800 later. If your database password
gets changed by some other method after NAC 800 is installed, NAC 800 will
not be able to communicate with the database. In this case, contact ProCurve
Networking by HP for assistance.
