| Restart / Reset
If you cannot solve a problem by reconfiguring a feature, either restarting or resetting the switch might solve the problem or help you to eliminate probable causes. If the problem exists after you reset the switch to its default settings, it is unlikely that the switch is causing the problem. Click Submit after choosing one of these options:
Restart the Switch | This option restarts the switch without turning off power. The switch retains its saved configuration settings during the restart process. However, the device manager is unavailable during the process. When the process completes, the switch displays the device manager. Note: 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. Caution: 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 (as described in the switch user guide) and use the new IP address to display the device manager. Note: Resetting the switch interrupts connectivity of your devices to the network.
