Letter of Volatility GS724T
Howdy, I know this has been solved elsewhere but all the links have expired. Can someone please send a new link to Letter of Volatility for the GS724T? Thanks,
Justin

Hi jnoose,
No need for a specialized software to fully reset the switch. Resetting it to factory default would suffice and NETGEAR doesn't provide any specialized software in order for the switch to cleared out. Maybe it was just pointing to the Smart Control Center.

Hi John,
Still looking for some clarity on this issue. Do I NEED the specialized software to fully clear this switch or would a factory reset suffice?

So, with regard to the NV memory on this switch.... the letter of volatility should say:
"Remove power. User a paper clip to press the factory reset button."
You're positive this will return the switch to an unclassified state???
If so, can we please have the letter updated to reflect this?- JohnC_VJun 12, 2018NETGEAR Employee Retired
The switch needs to be turned on when resetting it to factory default. Once you reset it, you cannot restore it from its previous settings unless you do have a backup of the configuration. Everything will be deleted. We can try to request it to have it updated but I cannot guarantee.
Important: Restoring the default settings erases all saved configurations including the password, VLAN settings, and port configurations.
Here is the reference.
How do I reset a smart switch to factory default settings?
