Restoring Default Configuration - Cisco TelePresence Administrator's Manual

Restoring default configuration

It is possible to reset a VCS to its default configuration.
The following procedure must be performed from the serial console or directly connected to the VCS with a
keyboard and monitor. This is because the network settings will be rewritten, so any SSH session used to
initiate the reset would be dropped and the output of the procedure would not be seen. The process takes
approximately 20 minutes.
To reset the VCS:
1. Log in to the VCS as root.
2. Type factory-reset
3. Answer the questions as required:
Prompt
Keep option keys [YES/NO]?
Keep IP configuration [YES/NO]?
Keep ssh keys [YES/NO]?
Keep ssl certificates and keys
Keep root and admin passwords [YES/NO]?
Save log files [YES/NO]?
Replace hard disk [YES/NO]?
4. Finally, confirm that you want to proceed.
