How do I upload and install factory default config file on a NetVanta 1238

[Anonymous]

I have downloaded the factory default config file (default-config-123x.cfg) from the Support section. I performed a factory reset using CLI but still cannot access the GUI following all the instructions step by step. I have made numerous attempts at activating the GUI with instructions from this site as well as many I found doing Google searches.  Most of the line commands return an error message stating command is unrecognized. Every command from "no ip firewall" to "end" fails as unrecognized.

• Switch>enable
• Switch#configure terminal
• Switch (config)#ip http server
• Switch (config)#username admin password password
• Switch (config)#no ip firewall
• Switch (config)#int eth 0/1
• Switch (config-intf-eth 0/1)#ip address 10.10.10.1 255.0.0.0
• Switch (config-intf-eth 0/1))#no shut
• Switch (config-intf-eth 0/1))#end
• Switch (config)#exit
• Switch#write

I would greatly appreciate a step-by-step that works or a link to same that will show me how to upload and install the factory default config using the CLI.

Same here.  I just came to find out how to fix this exact same thing.  I have 2 of these and I can get into one of them just fine with GUI.  New to this, might try to copy the config from the one that works.  Now to figure out how to do that....
