CAUTION: This process erases all your custom settings, including your network profile assignments and any custom profile templates. 6. In the pop-up window, click the Confirm button. The factory default reset process starts. During the reset process, do not power down the switch. The switch reboots and restarts with factory default settings. When the process is complete, you can log in again to the AV UI, but you first might need to determine the IP address of the switch. Manually control the fans The switch includes internal fans that support intelligent operation, which enables the switch to automatically start the operation of the fans, gradually increase the speed of the fans, and either halt PoE or block traffic if the temperature exceeds a critical level. You can manually control the fans through either the AV UI (see the following procedure) or the command-line interface (CLI). If the fans are functioning in Off mode (which you only can set manually) or in Quiet mode, the switch automatically manages the fans and turns on the fans or gradually increases the speed of the fans under the following conditions: • PoE+ and PoE++ M4250 series models: Either the temperature detected by the temperature sensor exceeds its threshold or a PoE budget is exceeded. • LED tiles model (M4250-12M2XF): Either the temperature detected by the temperature sensor exceeds its threshold or the switch processes a full traffic load. • Aggregation model (M4250-16XF): Either the temperature detected by the temperature sensor exceeds its threshold or the switch processes a full traffic load. Note: For detailed information about temperature thresholds, PoE budgets, and traffic load conditions that affect the fans, see the hardware installation guide, which you can download by visiting netgear.com/support/download. To manually control the fans: 1. Launch a web browser. 2. In the address field of your web browser, enter the IP address of the switch. The login page displays.

Manually control the fans
The switch includes internal fans that support intelligent operation, which enables the
switch to automatically start the operation of the fans, gradually increase the speed of
the fans, and either halt PoE or block traffic if the temperature exceeds a critical level.
You can manually control the fans through either the AV UI (see the following procedure)
or the command-line interface (CLI).
If the fans are functioning in Off mode (which you only can set manually) or in Quiet
mode, the switch automatically manages the fans and turns on the fans or gradually
increases the speed of the fans under the following conditions:
PoE+ and PoE++ M4250 series models
:
Either
the temperature detected by the
temperature sensor exceeds its threshold
or
a PoE budget is exceeded.
LED tiles model (M4250-12M2XF)
:
Either
the temperature detected by the
temperature sensor exceeds its threshold
or
the switch processes a full traffic load.
Aggregation model (M4250-16XF)
:
Either
the temperature detected by the
temperature sensor exceeds its threshold
or
the switch processes a full traffic load.
Note:
For detailed information about temperature thresholds, PoE budgets, and traffic
load conditions that affect the fans, see the hardware installation guide, which you can
download by visiting netgear.com/support/download
