    are you able to access the device through console port? If yes, you issue the command exe factoryreset

    even thru its console port? IMO, you need to secure USB to serial. Its very useful in dealing with networking and sec devices.

    On console (Try to change the putty console speed to 115200) or ssh you must write:

    execute factoryreset

    or

    execute factoryresetfull (the swith reload on old software release)
