Information
Restoring factory defaults deletes the existing startup configuration and all persistent settings
(stacking, fanout, etc.).
Dell Networking recommends backing up the startup configuration before using this command.
When restoring all units in a stack, all the units in the stack are placed into stand-alone mode.
When restoring a single unit in a stack, that unit is placed in stand-alone mode. No other units in the
stack are affected.
When restoring units in stand-alone mode, the units remain in stand-alone mode after the restoration.
After the restore is complete, the units power cycle immediately.
