Use the RESET button on the front panel of the NSA to reset either just the NSA’s admin 
password and IP address settings or the whole factory default configuration file. Use an object 
such as an unfolded paper clip to press the RESET button. 

"

Ideally you should back up the current NSA configuration file before resetting 
or reloading the factory default configuration file.

Do the following to only reset the administrator password and IP address settings to the 
defaults.

Press the RESET button and  hold it for two seconds (you will hear one beep) and release it. 
The NSA sounds another single beep after you release the button as confirmation.

Do the following to reload the factory default configuration file. This resets the admin 
password and IP address settings to the default settings AND erases all other configurations 
such as user/group/share names, passwords, and share access rights. 

Press the RESET button and hold it for ten seconds (you will hear three beeps) and release it. 
The NSA sounds three more beeps after you release the button as confirmation.
