Note:

Before resetting the product, you may want to review the kinds of data that will

be reset by browsing through the Configure page and associated tabs.

If the product configuration is reset, management access of the product may be
lost until the network information is restored. The product must be offline before
the configuration can be reset. See

step 1

in

Configuring Ports

” on page 26 for

instructions on setting the product offline.

Note:

Since the current IP address for the product may not match the factory default

values, the Ethernet link between the product and the service processor may drop and

not reset. Make sure you record the product’s current IP address as you will want to

enter that value in the IP Address field, under the Configure page, Switch or Director

tab, and Network tab. See “

Configuring Network Information

on page 38 in

Chapter 2

for instructions.

Note:

After you reset the product configuration, you should view the product

information page as described in “

Obtaining Product Information

” on page 114. Save

the product information page to a file or print the page to verify the changes you made

and to identify the default values.

Set Individual Port Beaconing On or Off

Choose Operations from the navigation panel. Choose the Port tab and the
Beacon tab; the Beacon tab view displays (

Figure 37

). Use this view to enable or

disable beaconing for individual ports. Enabling beaconing helps you to locate a
specific port for troubleshooting purposes by the use of flashing port LED. When
there are multiple products stacked together, such as in a rack-mount cabinet,
beaconing is useful to help locate a specific port by turning beaconing on for only
that port.

The first column shows the port number, the second column contains the port
name, as configured in the Ports tab view on the Configure page, and the third
column contains check boxes to enable/disable beaconing.
