Erasing the Configuration and Restoring the Default Settings
Two methods are available for erasing the configuration and restoring the factory default settings.
You can press and hold the front panel Factory Defaults push button for more than five seconds, or
you can use the Erase button in the Utilities menu. All settings will be restored to defaults with the
exception of the Certificates Table. Any certificates that you have imported will remain in the
table. After erasing the configuration, you must access the device using its factory default IP
address as described in
“Initial Connection to the SSL VPN Concentrator” on page 2-3 .
To erase your SSL VPN Concentrator configuration settings using the Erase button:
1. In the Utilities menu, click Erase.
2. A dialog box will prompt you to confirm the change. Click OK to restore the initial factory
default configuration settings.
The SSL VPN Concentrator software will automatically be restarted and all active connections
will be dropped..
