The revert command
The revert command is used to revert changes to the IX14 device's configuration and restore default
configuration settings. The behavior of the revert command varies depending on where in the
configuration hierarchy the command is executed, and whether the optional path parameter is used.
After executing the revert command, you must save the configuration changes by using the save
command. You can also discard the configuration changes by using the cancel command.
CAUTION! The revert command reverts all changes to the default configuration, not only
unsaved changes.
Revert all configuration changes to default settings
To discard all configuration changes and revert to default settings, use the revert command at the
config prompt without the optional path parameter:
1. At the config prompt, enter revert:
(config)> revert
(config)>
2. Set the password for the admin user prior to saving the changes:
(config)> auth user admin password pwd
(config)>
3. Save the configuration and apply the change:
(config)> save
Configuration saved.
