Returning the AT-S81 Management Software to the Factory Default
Values

This procedure returns all AT-S81 management software parameters to
their default values and deletes all tagged and VLANs on the switch. The
AT-S81 management software default values are listed in Appendix A,
”AT-S81 Software Default Settings” on page 283.

Caution

This procedure causes the switch to reboot. The switch does not
forward network traffic during the reboot process. Some network
traffic may be lost.

To return the AT-S81 management software to the default settings,
perform the following procedure:

1. From the Main Menu, type T to select Switch Tools.

The Switch Tools Configuration Menu is shown in Figure 9 on page 47.

2. From the Switch Tools Menu, type R to select System Reboot to start

the reboot.

The System Reboot menu is shown in Figure 10 on page 48.

3. Type O to select Set Reboot Option.

The following prompt is displayed:

Select reboot option (F/I/N)>

4. Type F or I to select one of the following:

F (Factory Default)
Resets all switch parameters to the factory default settings, including
IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address.

I (Reset to Defaults Except IP Address)
Resets all switch parameters to the factory default settings, but retains
the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway settings. If the DHCP client
is enabled, it remains enabled after this reset.

Note

Option N is described in “Rebooting the Switch” on page 47.
