McDATA Sphereon™ 4500 Fabric Switch Product Manager User Manual

Using Maintenance Features

Procedure

1. Set the switch offline. For instructions, refer to Set Online State on

page 5-4.

2. Select Reset Configuration from the Maintenance menu on the

menu bar. The following warning displays:

CAUTION

This operation will reset all switch configuration data and

non-volatile settings to factory default values. All optional features

will also be disabled. The switch must be offline to continue.

NOTE: If you have enabled features that add additional port function since

the switch was shipped from the factory, these features will be disabled

(factory default) when the configuration is reset. Only those ports that were

enabled at the factory will function. You will have to enable the additional

port function features again through the Configure Feature Key dialog box.

NOTE: If you have enabled the Full Volatility feature through the switch’s

maintenance port since the switch was shipped from the factory, this feature

will disable (factory default) when the configuration is reset.

NOTE: Factory-default values may vary, depending on the firmware release

installed in your switch. For a list of values, refer to the McDATA Sphereon

4500 Fabric Switch Installation and Service Manual (620-000159).
