Reset Button
Reset Button
You can force a downline load of the AP’s firmware from a load host and reset to
factory parameters by pressing the Reset button on the front panel of the AP during a
power-up cycle. When you press the Reset button as the AP is powering up, the LEDs
cycle through three times to indicate that the AP recognized the reset request. If the
LEDs do not function properly after resetting the AP to its factory settings, remove the
AP and contact your sales representative.
Setting Upline Dump
This parameter allows you to specify whether the AP’s memory is upline dumped in
the event the AP crashes.
When upline dump mode is enabled, the AP’s memory is dumped to any local
BootP/TFTP load host that is configured with the AP’s address. Upline dump mode is
disabled by default.
Depending on the dump host, you may need to create a writable file to accept the dump.
The file name should be apxxxxxx.dmp, where xxxxxxx is the last 6 digits of the AP’s
wired MAC address, which is printed on the front cover of the AP.
The Upline Dump setting is available by clicking the Operating Modes button in the
AP Manager, or selecting the Module-Specific Options in the console port menu.
