Resetting the Configuration
If you will be selling your FortiRecorder appliance, or if you are not sure what part of your configuration is causing a problem, you can reset it and its cameras to their default settings and erase data. (If you have not updated the firmware, this is the same as resetting to the factory default settings.)
|
Back up your configuration before beginning this procedure, if possible. Resetting the configuration could include the IP addresses of network interfaces. For information on backups, see “Regular backups”. For information on reconnecting to a FortiRecorder appliance whose network interface configuration was reset, see “Connecting to FortiRecorder web UI”. For information on reconnecting your cameras, see “Configuring video profiles”. |
To reset your cameras’ configuration, connect to the CLI and enter these commands:
config camera devices
edit <camera_name>
set status disable
end
execute camera factoryreset <camera_name>
To delete your data from the FortiRecorder, connect to the CLI and enter this command:
execute formatlogdisk
To reset the FortiRecorder’s configuration, connect to the CLI and enter this command:
execute factoryreset

Alternatively, you can reset the FortiRecorder’s configuration to its default values for a specific software version by restoring the firmware during a reboot (a “clean install”). See “Restoring firmware (“clean install”)”. |
