What are the steps to perform a factory reset from the recovery kiosk or MGMT network interface on physical devices? -
Causa
A factory reset on a device, will revert it back to the factory version or Long Term Support (LTS) version. For example, if you are using version 6.6 feature release or 6.0.6 LTS and then factory reset, the appliance will reset down to 6.0 LTS. If using 2.11.2 or below, it will revert to the shipped version of 2.1. After a factory reset the appliance must be configured again.
Note, performing a factory reset on a clustered appliance will not automatically remove the appliance from a cluster.
