Quick Installation Guide Resetting to Factory Defaults APC Mach 5 v2 has the capability of being reset to defaults by pinging the device with a certain packet size when the device is booting. During the startup of the device, when the drivers of the ethernet interfaces are loaded, the reset daemon is started. The daemon suspends startup process for 3 seconds and waits for ICMP "echo request" packet of length 369 bytes. If the packet received, the reset daemon sets the device to default configuration.
