4.4 Saving Your Configuration
When you are done modifying the settings in a screen, click Apply to save your changes back to
the run-time memory. Settings in the run-time memory are lost when the Switch’s power is turned
off.
Click the Save link in the upper right hand corner of the web configurator to save your
configuration to nonvolatile memory. Nonvolatile memory refers to the Switch’s storage that
remains even if the Switch’s power is turned off.
Note: Use the Save link when you are done with a configuration session.
4.5 Switch Lockout
You could block yourself (and all others) from using in-band-management (managing through the
data ports) if you do one of the following:
1
Delete the management VLAN (default is VLAN 1).
2
Delete all port-based VLANs with the CPU port as a member. The “CPU port” is the management
port of the Switch.
3
Filter all traffic to the CPU port.
4
Disable all ports.
5
Misconfigure the text configuration file.
6
Forget the password and/or IP address.
7
Prevent all services from accessing the Switch.
8
Change a service port number but forget it.
Note: Be careful not to lock yourself and others out of the Switch. If you do lock yourself
out, try using out-of-band management (via the management port) to configure
the Switch.
4.6 Resetting the Switch
If you lock yourself (and others) from the Switch or forget the administrator password, you will
need to reload the factory-default configuration file or reset the Switch back to the factory defaults.
4.6.1 Reload the Configuration File
Uploading the factory-default configuration file replaces the current configuration file with the
factory-default configuration file. This means that you will lose all previous configurations and the
speed of the console port will be reset to the default of 9600bps with 8 data bit, no parity, one stop
