Warning
Before restoring your SG unit to its default factory settings via the web management
console or reset button, it is strongly recommended that you create a back up of your
configuration. Refer to the Save/Restore section earlier in this chapter for details.
Reboot device
Click Reboot Now to have the SG unit to perform a soft reboot. It usually takes around
10 seconds before it is up and running again.
If you have enabled bridging, the SG unit may take up to 30 seconds to reboot. Any
shared printers take 30 seconds to become available, during which time print jobs are not
accepted.
Erase configuration
To erase your SG unit’s configuration and return to the factory default settings, click
Erase Configuration. This is useful if you want to reconfigure the device form scratch
after an upgrade, or want to redeploy the device into a different environment.
Reset button
Another method to clear the SG unit’s stored configuration information is by pushing the
reset button on the back panel of the SG unit twice. A bent paper clip is a suitable tool
for performing this procedure.
This is particularly useful should the SG unit become uncontactable, e.g. due to
misconfiguration.
Pushing the reset button twice clears all stored configuration information, reverts all
settings to the factory defaults, and reboots the SG unit.
Note
When the SG unit reboots, it has an IP address of 192.168.0.1, netmask 255.255.255.0.
