Factory Reset of BSIP
A Factory Reset (resetting the BSIP to its default configuration) may be performed either by:
- a local login at the WBM of a BSIP-Only using the Factory Reset button or
- a special "power sequencing" cycle (e.g. if the BSIP WBM is not accessible) using the Ethernet cable at the BSIP.
Both methods are resetting the active partition of a BSIP to its factory default configuration.
The factory reset by “power sequencing” is applied by the following process:
(1) Power on the board by plugging the Ethernet cable (see note)
(2) Wait 5 s (3 s < wait < 7 s)
(3) Power off the board by unplugging the Ethernet cable
(4) Repeat steps (1) - (3) three [3] times
(5) Boot BSIP to OS
The successful factory reset is indicated by fast red flashing of both LEDs.
Note: If you provide power to the board by connecting the Ethernet cable using a PoE Switch power may NOT provided immediately.
Due to the stages of powering up a PoE link defined in 802.3af it may take up to some seconds until the power is delivered from the switch to the PoE port.
Take a look at the LEDs or the switch status LEDs to see at which point the power is available.
After this procedure, the default configuration parameters will be set.
The default application mode after a reset is BSIP-Only mode.
Hint: The factory reset is applied to the currently active partition. It does not affect the settings of the other partition.
But both operation mode settings (BSIP-Only and BSIP-IWU) of the active partitions are resetted.
