2.2 Restoring Unit to Factory Default from Web Interface

This option must be used when you restore the unit to semi-factory default, leaving only the unit network access configuration unchanged.

By keeping the unit IP address unchanged, the remote user has the option to access the unit from the remote, although most other unit parameters are restored to factory default.

Note: Only running-config is restored to factory default. To make factory default parameter changes permanent, you must save running-config to startup-config by performing the following steps:
  1. Use the web interface to access the web page Maintenance > Factory Default and initiate the factory default process.
  2. Wait several seconds to let the Factory Default process finish followed by Configuration Factory Reset Done.
  3. Save the new running default configuration by accessing the web page Maintenance > Configuration > Save Startup-Config.
