Performing a Comprehensive Restore to Factory Defaults
To perform a Comprehensive Restore to Factory Defaults:
Restoring the Collaboration Server to Factory Defaults consists of the following steps:
Step 1: Backup Configuration Files. These files will be used to restore the system in Step 10.

Step 3: Connect to the Collaboration Server and the workstation using a LAN cable.
Step 4: Into the Collaboration Server’s USB port, insert a USB key containing a file named

Step 5: Restart the Collaboration Server.
