Reset Button

To reset the device password, proceed as follows:

1. Make sure that the CPU LED is solid green, indicating that the device is fully functional.

2. Then press-and-hold the Reset button

for a minimum of 5 seconds. This resets the password

to its default setting.

3. Logon to device management. You can now logon to the device via the Console port and assign

a new password using the command line interface (CLI). To access device management from
your local pc, terminal, or modem connection, proceed as follows:

a. Enter rw (Read-Write) for Username.

b. At the Password prompt, press ENTER (RETURN).

For details on how to enter a new password using the command line interface, refer to the Matrix C
Series Configuration Guide
. The CLI commands enable you to initially set up and perform more
involved switch management configurations.
