Factory reset V1000 procedure

[Phil_Boynton]

Pulled an older V1000 out of the back of the closet as we were out of units on our new deployment. Tried to upgrade from 1.0 to 1.5 and bricked it maybe. NIC light on unit is solid red, sometimes turning to solid gree, then back to solid red… can I recover?
