Reset button, and then power up the NSS. When you see the Power LED 
blink yellow rapidly, release the Reset button. The network settings are 
restored to factory defaults.

Reset the box: Press and hold the Reset button while the system is 
running until the Power LED begins to blink green. Release the button.

A warning message appears.

Click OK to continue. 

You can view the Power LED on the front of the chassis during the reboot or 
shutdown process. It changes to indicate the current status of the process. When 
the NSS is fully powered up, the Power LED is solid green. When the shutdown is 
complete, the Power LED is off. You need to unlock any encrypted volumes 
following any reboot or power up of the NSS.

Before you start the firmware upgrade, note the following:

•

The firmware must be upgraded from an external source to the NSS. You 
cannot install firmware that is saved to a disk on the NSS. If a copy of the 
firmware is saved to a disk on the NSS, make sure you that you copy it to 
another location (such as onto a PC) before you attempt to upgrade it.

•

The firmware must be compatible with the NSS platform.

•

The firmware must be newer than the version currently installed. The 
system does not support downgrades.

•

The firmware must be installed in a specific order if upgrading within a 
virtualized setup (see 

). 

When you upgrade the firmware, avoid using a wireless connection to the NSS as 
wireless connections can be unreliable and cause image corruption. Do not 
interrupt the power during the firmware upgrade. The system reboots after the 
firmware upgrade is completed. Wait until the Power LED goes back to solid green 
before you log in and use the configuration interface.
