and Uploading Files on page 44 or Configuring from the Network on page 58.
Resetting the Pre-configured System
If you are bringing up a system that had been previously configured in a stack, you must ensure the system
is set to the correct unit number if installing into a new stack. If the system is not reconfigured to the
correct unit number, it will come up as the switch number from the previous stack. For details, see
Chapter 5, Stacking S-Series Switches. To ensure that the unit comes up with the correct unit number in the
new stack, use the
switch renumber command to change the unit number:
Note: Resetting to factory defaults is more powerful than executing the clear config command,
because it resets all internal values.
