factory-set

Out-of-box configuration

Factory-set describes settings, values, or configurations established during manufacturing before a product reaches the consumer.

These are the defaults a device ships with, as opposed to customizations made by the user afterward.

When you perform a factory reset on your phone or router, you restore it to its factory-set state, erasing personal data and returning all options to their original values.

The factory-set password is printed on the back of the modem.
