Clear Button

Caution If you are concerned with the security of the switch configuration and its

operation, you should make sure the switch is installed in a secure location,

such as a locked wiring closet.

This button may be used for the following:

■ Deleting Passwords - When pressed by itself for at least one second, the

button deletes any switch console access passwords that you may have

configured. Use this feature if you have misplaced the password and need

console access.

Restoring Factory Default Configuration - When pressed with the

Reset button in a specific pattern, any configuration changes you may

have made through the switch console, the web browser interface, and

SNMP management are removed, and the factory default configuration is

restored to the switch. For the specific method to restore the factory

default configuration, see “Restoring the Factory Default Configuration

in the “Troubleshooting” chapter of the “ProCurve Series 2810 Switch

Installation and Getting Started Guide”, located on the ProCurve

Networking Web site, www.procurve.com.

Port LED Meaning

Link LED Indicates the port’s link status:

• if the port LED is on, the port is enabled and receiving a link indication from the

connected device.

• if the port LED is off, the port has no active network cable connected, or is not

receiving link beat or sufficient light. Otherwise, the port may have been disabled

through the switch console or the web browser interface.

• if the port LED is blinking* simultaneously with the Fault LED, the corresponding port

has failed its self test.

Mode LED The operation of the Mode LED is controlled by the LED Mode select button, and the

current setting is indicated by the LED Mode indicator LEDs near the button. Press the

button to step from one view mode to the next. The default view is Activity (Act).

* The blinking behavior is an on/off cycle once every 1.6 seconds, approximately.
