4.5 Switch Lockout
You could block yourself (and all others) from using the web configurator if you:
1 Remove all the ports from the default VLAN (default is VLAN 1) when no other
VLANs exist.
2 Disable all ports.
3 Forget the password and/or IP address.
4 Enable Dynamic ARP without entering the proper MAC to IP address binding.
4.6 Resetting the Switch
If you lock yourself (and others) from the Switch or forget the administrator
password, you will need to reset the Switch back to the factory defaults.
Use the RESET button to reset the Switch back to factory defaults. Press and hold
the RESET button for one second. The Switch will reload its factory defaults.
The Switch is now reinitialized with a default configuration file including the default
administrator username (admin) and password (1234). The IP address of the
Switch also reverts to the default 192.168.1.1.
