CONFIG Button

Use the CONFIG button to return the router to either the rescue configuration or the factory default configuration. The CONFIG button is recessed to prevent it from being pressed accidentally.

The CONFIG button performs two recovery operations:

• Rescue—Press and release the CONFIG button to load and commit the rescue configuration, if you have set it. To set the rescue configuration, see the J-series Services Router Basic LAN and WAN Access Configuration Guide.
• Clear—Press and hold the CONFIG button for 15 seconds or more, until the configuration LED blinks red to indicate the clear operation is in progress. The clear operation deletes all configurations on the router (including the rescue configuration and backup configurations) and loads and commits the factory configuration.

Pressing and holding the CONFIG button for 15 seconds or more deletes all configurations on the router and loads and commits the factory configuration.

You can change the default behavior of the CONFIG button. For more information, see the J-series Services Router Basic LAN and WAN Access Configuration Guide.

Table 9 describes the configuration LED.
