<h1 class="title topictitle1" id="ariaid-title1">Partial Reset</h1>
<div class="body conbody"><p class="shortdesc">The partial reset provides a way to contact the Mediatrix unit in a known and static
state while keeping most of the configuration unchanged.</p>
<p class="p">A partial reset can be performed at the initial start-up of the Mediatrix unit or on a unit
already in use where the configuration was modified in such a way that the user can no longer
access the system by the Web page or otherwise. In both cases, the user can manage the Mediatrix
unit through its Rescue interface, which is bound to the unit's WAN port (wan for the Mediatrix
4102S, and ETH1 for all other Mediatrix units). The IP address of the Rescue interface is
192.168.0.1 (IPv4) or an IPv6 Link Local address.. These connections give access to the Rescue
Management Interface where the configuration of a new unit can be completed and where an existing
configuration can be modified. </p>
<p class="p">By default the Rescue Network Interface is disabled. When a partial reset is performed, the
Rescue network Interface becomes enabled and the "Power" and "Ready" LEDs are blinking at 1Hz
with 75% duty and all other LEDs are off. Once the configuration has been modified to solve the
problem that required the partial reset, it is important to disable the Rescue Network Interface
to make sure that you are no longer working in the Rescue Network Interface.</p>
<div class="p">Performing a partial reset on a new unit will not modify the configuration, as it has not yet
been modified to your needs. However, a partial reset performed on a unit already in use will:<ul class="ul" id="concept_xdd_qkh_dq__ul_agw_s5h_dq">
<li class="li">Rollback Local Firewall settings that are not yet applied.</li>
<li class="li">Add a Local Firewall rule to allow complete access to the Rescue interface.</li>
<li class="li">Rollback NAT settings that are not yet applied.</li>
<li class="li">Add NAT rule to allow complete access to the Rescue interface.</li>
<li class="li">Cancel the changes that were being modified but not yet applied to the configuration.</li>
<li class="li">Disable any Network Interface in conflict with the Network Rescue Interface.</li>
<li class="li">Configure and enable the Rescue Network Interface to: <ul class="ul" id="concept_xdd_qkh_dq__ul_hpt_rvh_dq">
<li class="li">use the link as the default value used by the Uplink Network Interface</li>
<li class="li">set the IP address to 192.168.0.1 and the Network Mask to 255.255.255.0. </li>
<li class="li">set the IPv6 link-local address on all network links. The IPv6 link-local address can be
found underneath the unit.</li>
</ul></li>
</ul></div>
<div class="p">A partial reset will also modify the following parameters and preserve the values below even
after the Rescue interface has been disabled. <div class="note note note_note"><span class="note__title">Note:</span> These changes are valid when using a MX
profile. If the Mediatrix unit is not using a MX profile, the default values and therefore the
behaviour of the parameters may be different.</div>

<div class="p">Several types of documents were created to clearly present the information you are looking for.
Our documentation includes:<ul class="ul" id="concept_v4k_q3h_1r__ul_bqy_cjh_1r">
<li class="li"><strong class="ph b">Release notes</strong>: Generated at each GA release, this document includes the known and
solved issues of the software. It also outlines the changes and the new features the release
includes.</li>
<li class="li"><strong class="ph b">Configuration notes</strong>: These documents are created to facilitate the configuration of a
specific use case. They address a configuration aspect we consider that most users will need to
perform. However, in some cases, a configuration note is created after receiving a question
from a customer. They provide standard step-by-step procedures detailing the values of the
parameters to use. They provide a means of validation and present some conceptual information.
The configuration notes are specifically created to guide the user through an aspect of the
configuration. </li>
<li class="li"><strong class="ph b">Technical bulletins</strong>: These documents are created to facilitate the configuration of a
specific technical action, such as performing a firmware upgrade.</li>
<li class="li"><strong class="ph b">Hardware installation guide</strong>: They provide the detailed procedure on how to safely and
adequately install the unit. It provides information on card installation, cable connections,
and how to access for the first time the Management interface.</li>
<li class="li"><strong class="ph b">User guide</strong>: The user guide explains how to customise to your needs the configuration
of the unit. Although this document is task oriented, it provides conceptual information to
help the user understand the purpose and impact of each task. The User Guide will provide
information such as where and how TR-069 can be configured in the Management Interface, how to
set firewalls, or how to use the CLI to configure parameters that are not available in the
Management Interface.</li>
<li class="li"><strong class="ph b">Reference guide</strong>: This exhaustive document has been created for advanced users. It
includes a description of all the parameters used by all the services of the Mediatrix units.
You will find, for example, scripts to configure a specific parameter, notification messages
sent by a service, or an action description used to create Rulesets. This document includes
reference information such as a dictionary, and it does not include any step-by-step
procedures. </li>
