Follow these steps to return your switch to the factory default settings. These are
reasons why you might want to reset the switch:
You installed the switch in your network and cannot connect to it because you
•
assigned the wrong IP address.
You want to clear all configurations from the switch and assign a new IP
•
address.
You want to reset the password on the switch.
•
Resetting the switch deletes the configuration and reboots the switch.
To reset the switch:
Press and hold the Mode button. The switch LEDs begin blinking after about
3 seconds. Continue holding down the Mode button. The LEDs stop blinking after
7 more seconds, and then the switch reboots.
The switch now behaves like an unconfigured switch. You can enter the switch IP
information by using Express Setup as described in the
section on page
4.
First look for a solution to your problem in the troubleshooting section of the
switch hardware installation guide or the switch software configuration guide on
Cisco.com. You can also access the Cisco Technical Support and Documentation
website for a list of known hardware problems and extensive troubleshooting
documentation.
