11. System Management This chapter describes how the Administrator can perform a range of general console server system administrative and configuration tasks. 11.1 System Administration and Reset The Administrator can reboot or reset the gateway to default settings. To perform a soft reset: • Select Reboot in the System: Administration menu and click Apply. The console server reboots with all settings (e.g., the assigned network IP address) preserved. However, this soft reset disconnects all users and ends any SSH sessions that had been established. A soft reset will also be affected when you switch OFF power from the console server and switch the power back ON. If you cycle the power and the unit is writing data to flash memory, you could corrupt or lose data. As such, a software reboot is the safer option. To perform a hard erase (hard reset): • Push the Erase button on the rear panel twice. A ballpoint pen or bent paper clip is a suitable tool for performing this procedure. Do not use a graphite pencil. Depress the button gently twice (within a couple of second period) while the unit is powered ON. This will reset the console server to its factory default settings and clear the console server's stored configuration information (i.e. the IP address will be reset to 192.168.0.1). You will be prompted to log in and must enter the default administration username and administration password (Username: root Password: default). 197
