Explanation
Resetconfig is the correct command because it specifically resets configuration settings to factory defaults while preserving existing logs and reports - exactly the behavior described. Reload restarts or reboots the system/service rather than altering configuration files. Restoreconfig implies restoring a previously saved configuration (from a backup), not wiping to factory defaults. Loadconfig suggests importing or applying a configuration file from an external source, not resetting to defaults.
Memory tip: Think "reset = return to zero/factory." The word reset carries the meaning of "start fresh from the original state," which maps directly to factory defaults. If you ever confuse it with restore, remember: restore brings back something you saved, while reset goes back to what the manufacturer set.
