By resetting the MA Network Switch, you return the switch to the state it was in when it was first time powered.
This is useful for troubleshooting problems that might be caused by manual changes after first time powered.
Refer to, factory defaults for a complete list of all settings and information they are reset.

Resetting the MA Switch is not reversible. After a reset, all previous settings are lost and cannot be recovered.

Use the Web Interface

Requirement: Connection to the web interface.

  1. Click Tools / Edit General settings.
  2. Click Reset ALL settings to factory defaults.
    A warning asks if you are really sure to reset to factory default.
  3. Click OK.

It might take a little while for the process to complete.

The MA Network Switch restarts. All settings are set back to the factory defaults.

Use the Menu Button

  1. Press the menu button on the switch for at least 5 seconds until the reset screen appears.
  2. Press the menu button again for at least 5 seconds until the booting screen appears.

The MA Network Switch turns off and restarts. All settings are set back to the factory defaults.
