Troubleshoot the Switch Chapter 6

Restart or Reset the Switch

If you cannot solve an issue by reconfiguring a feature, either restarting or
resetting the switch can solve the issue or help you to eliminate probable causes. If
the issue exists after you reset the switch to its default settings, it is unlikely that
the switch is causing the issue.

Restart the Switch from the Device Manager Web Interface

From the Device Manager Web interface, on the Restart/Reset dialog box, click
Restart the Switch.

This option restarts the switch without turning off power. The Device Manager
Web interface is unavailable during the restart process. When the process
completes, the switch displays the Device Manager Web interface.

If you do not know the switch IP address, follow the procedure in the

Access

Direct Managed Mode section on page 237

to access Direct Managed mode.

Restart the Switch from the Logix Designer Application

From Module Properties dialog box within the Logix Designer application, do
the following.

1. Click the Module Info tab.

2. Click Reset Module.

A password prompt appears.

3. Enter your password and click Enter.

Description

Restart

This option restarts the switch without turning off power. The switch retains its saved configuration settings during the restart process. However, the

Device Manager Web interface is unavailable during the process. When the process completes, the switch displays the Device Manager Web
interface.
IMPORTANT: Restarting the switch interrupts connectivity of your devices to the network.

Reset the Switch to Factory
Defaults

This option resets the switch, deletes the current configuration settings, returns to the factory default settings, and then restarts the switch.

ATTENTION: Resetting the switch deletes all customized switch settings, including the IP address, and returns the switch to the factory default
settings. The same software image is retained. You need to reconfigure the basic switch settings.
