Syntax

reset {[config | system]}

Description

In the above syntax example, users have the option to specify

config

or

system

necessary to specify either optional value, however the effect of the system reset is dependent

on which, if any, value is specified. Therefore, with this example there are three possible

outcomes of performing a system reset. See the following chapter, Basic Commands for more

details about the reset command.

Example command
