Tutorial Overview: In this tutorial, you will learn how to reset a managed switch TP-Link using the CLI (Command Line Interface) through the console port. This step-by-step guide will help you reset the switch to its factory settings, allowing you to troubleshoot any issues or start fresh with your network configuration.

Step 1: Connect to the Console Port

• Locate the console port on your TP-Link managed switch (T2600G-28MPS).
• Use a console cable to connect your computer to the console port on the switch.

Step 2: Access the CLI

• Open a terminal emulator program on your computer (e.g., PuTTY, Tera Term).
• Configure the serial connection settings (baud rate, data bits, stop bits, parity) based on the switch's specifications.
• Connect to the switch through the terminal emulator to access the CLI.

Step 3: Enter Configuration Mode

• Once you have accessed the CLI, enter the configuration mode by typing the appropriate command (e.g., "configure").

Step 4: Reset the Switch

• To reset the switch to its factory settings, use the reset command (e.g., "reset system").
• Follow the on-screen prompts to confirm the reset operation.

Step 5: Save Configuration Changes

• After resetting the switch, save the configuration changes by typing the save command (e.g., "save").
• This will ensure that the switch retains the factory settings after a reboot.

Step 6: Reboot the Switch

• To complete the reset process, reboot the switch by typing the reboot command (e.g., "reboot").
• Wait for the switch to restart and apply the factory settings.

Step 7: Verify the Reset

• Once the switch has rebooted, verify that it has been successfully reset to its factory settings.
• You can now proceed with reconfiguring the switch according to your network requirements.

By following these steps, you can easily reset a managed switch TP-Link using the CLI through the console port. This tutorial will help you troubleshoot network issues or start fresh with your switch configuration.
