2.7.3. Restore to Factory Defaults Chapter 2. Management and Maintenance Important: Any upgrades will be lost after a factory reset It should be understood that a reset to factory defaults is exactly that. Any NetDefendOS upgrades performed since the unit left the factory will be lost. Reset Procedure for the NetDefend DFL-210, 260, 800 and 860 To reset the NetDefend DFL-210/260/800/860 models, hold down the reset button located at the rear of the unit for 10-15 seconds while powering on the unit. After that, release the reset button and the unit will continue to load and startup with its default factory settings. The IP address 192.168.1.1 will be assigned to the LAN interface. Reset Procedure for the NetDefend DFL-1600, 1660, 2500, 2560 and 2560G To reset the DFL-1600/1660/2500/2560/2560G models, press any key on the keypad when the Press keypad to Enter Setup message appears on the front display. Now, select the Reset firewall option and confirm by selecting Yes. Then wait for the reset process to complete after which the unit will startup with its default factory settings. The IP address 192.168.1.1 will be assigned to the default management interface LAN1 on the DFL-1600 and DFL-2500 models. The management interface IP address for the DFL-1660, DFL-2560 and DFL-2560G models will default to 192.168.10.1. The default IP address factory setting for the default management interface is discussed further in Section 2.1.3, "The Web Interface". Warning: Do NOT abort a reset to defaults If the process of resetting to factory defaults is aborted before it finishes, the NetDefend Firewall can then cease to function properly with the complete loss of all stored user data. End of Life Procedures The restore to factory defaults option should also be used as part of the end of life procedure when a NetDefend Firewall is taken out of operation and will no longer be used. As part of the decommissioning procedure, a restore to factory defaults should always be run in order to remove all sensitive information such as VPN settings. As a further precaution at the end of the product's life, it also recommended that the memory media in a NetDefend Firewall is destroyed and certified as destroyed by a suitable provider of computer disposal services. 75

To reset the NetDefend DFL-210/260/800/860 models, hold down the reset button located at the
rear of the unit for 10-15 seconds while powering on the unit. After that, release the reset button and
the unit will continue to load and startup with its default factory settings.
The IP address

decommissioning procedure, a restore to factory defaults should always be run in order to remove
all sensitive information such as VPN settings.
As a further precaution at the end of the product's life, it also recommended that the memory media
in a NetDefend Firewall is destroyed and certified as destroyed by a suitable provider of computer
disposal services.
