Rick,
you are right: the reset option in this moment is not yet performing any
action inside the NI Switch driver. We apologize for the inconvenience: it
will be activated in future release of the products. Unfortunately, in this
moment it is not possible to avoid the RESET of the switch card when you
open a new session.
