Reinitializing
Reinitializing the CCM appliance removes configured information. This may be useful when 
reinstalling the unit at another location in your network.You may erase the configuration database, 
which contains all nonvolatile data except the IP address, subnet mask and gateway. You may also 
erase both the configuration database and the network address information.
To reinitialize the CCM appliance in hardware:
1. Locate the recessed INIT button on the front of the CCM appliance. An opened paper clip may 
be used to depress the button.
2. Insert the end of the opened paper clip in the recess, then depress and hold the button. The 
ONLINE LED will blink, indicating an initialization has been requested. You have approxi-
mately seven seconds to release the button before any action is taken. 
After seven seconds, the ONLINE LED will blink more rapidly to confirm that the CCM 
configuration database has been erased. Continuing to hold the INIT button for a few more seconds 
will erase the IP address as well. The ONLINE LED will blink faster to confirm the deletion.
If any portion of FLASH is erased, the CCM appliance reboots when the INIT button is released.
To reinitialize the CCM appliance with a command:
1. Issue a Server Init command with the Config parameter if you wish to erase the configura-
tion database but retain the network address information.
-or-
Use the All parameter if you wish to erase the configuration database and the network 
address information. 
2. You are prompted to confirm or cancel the operation.
The appliance reboots after initializing the database and copying it to the configuration FLASH.
