Partial Reset
The Partial reset provides a way to contact the Mediatrix 4400 in a known and static state while keeping most
of the configuration unchanged.
Following a partial reset, the Mediatrix 4400 management interface is set to the
Rescue
interface. The default
address for this interface is 192.168.0.1/24 and has its corresponding link-local IPv6 available and printed on
the sticker under the Mediatrix 4400. Any existing network interface that conflicts with the Rescue interface
address is disabled.
You can contact the Mediatrix 4400 at this address to access its configuration parameters. It is not advised to
access the unit on a regular basis through the
Rescue
network interface. You should reconfigure the unit’s
network interfaces as soon as possible in order to access it through another interface. See
for more details.
In a partial reset, the following services and parameters are also affected:
AAA service: User(s) from profile are restored with their factory password.
SNMP service: Resets the
enableSnmpV1
,
enableSnmpV2
,
enableSnmpV3
and
snmpPort
values to their default values.
WEB service: Resets the
serverPort
to its default value.

RESET/DEFAULT
hole located at the rear of the Mediatrix
4400. While pressing the
RESET/DEFAULT
button, restart the unit.
