Chapter 5 Troubleshoot the Switch
Restart the Switch from the Device Manager Web Interface
From the Device Manager Web interface, on the Restart/Reset dialog box, click
Restart the Switch.
This option restarts the switch without turning off power. The Device Manager
Web interface is unavailable during the restart process. When the process
completes, the switch displays the Device Manager Web interface.
If you do not know the switch IP address, follow the procedure in the Access
Direct Managed Mode section on page 144 to access Direct Managed mode.
Restart the Switch from RSLogix 5000 Programming Software
Using RSLogix 5000 software, do the following.
1. Click the Module Info tab.
2. Click Reset Module.
A password prompt appears.
3. Enter your password and click Enter.
Reset the Switch to Factory Defaults
From the Device Manager Web interface, do the following.
1. Access the Device Manager Web interface Restart/Reset dialog box.
2. Click Reset the Switch.
This option resets the switch, deletes the current configuration settings,
returns to the factory default settings, and then restarts the switch.
ATTENTION: Resetting the switch deletes all customized switch
settings, including the IP address, and returns the switch to its
factory default. The same software image is retained. To manage
the switch or to display the device manager, you need to
reconfigure the basic switch settings (as described in Chapter 3,
Manage the Switch via the Device Manager Web Interface ) and
use the new IP address.
Restarting the switch interrupts connectivity of your devices to
the network.
