Restoring system settings to factory defaults Use the following procedure to restore system settings to the factory defaults. This procedure will possibly change the DFL-1100 firmware version to a lower version if it has been upgraded. Make sure you have the current firmware file available for upload to the device in the case where the firmware version is defaulted to an older version. The factory reset procedure erases all configuration changes that have been made to the DFL-1100 and reverts the system to its original configuration, including resetting of all interface addresses. Follow these steps to reset the DFL-1100 to factory default settings through the Webbased Configuration: Step 1. Under the Tools menu and the Reset section, click on the Reset to Factory Defaults button. Step 2. Click OK in the dialog to reset the unit to factory defaults, or press Cancel to cancel. Follow these steps to reset the DFL-1100 to factory default settings using the Console Port at the rear of the device: Step 1. Connect a PC with a Serial COM port to the COM port on the front of the DFL1100 using the provided Null Modem cable. Configure a Terminal Emulation program to use the following settings: 9600 Baud, 8 Data Bits, No Parity, 1 Stop Bit, No Flow Control. Step 2. Power Cycle the Firewall by either using the power switch on the rear of the device, or through the webUI. In the Terminal Emulation program input ctrl-c to interrupt the firmware loading procedure. Step 3. Select the menu option to restart the Firewall with Factory Default settings. The default settings will be applied and the firewall will restart. At this point the Firewall is loading the factory default configuration. Step 4. Allow at least 1 minute for the Firewall to completely restart. At this point the firewall can be accessed via its default LAN IP (192.168.1.1) through a web browser. The first login will require the use of the Wizard to complete basic connectivity configurations. You can restore your system settings by uploading a previously generated system configuration file to the DFL-1100 if a backup of the device has been downloaded to your Local Machine Prior to reset.
