62 Dell PowerConnect 28xx Systems User Guide
Entering Secure Mode
The Secure Mode
page allows you to put the device in the
Secure
management mode. Once enabled, it
prevents users from making any further configuration changes to the switch. This is done by removing
the IP address of the switch so that it becomes inaccessible. In Secure Mode the switch retains
configuration through power cycles just like in Managed Mode.
To use Secure Mode, configure the device in Managed Mode, and then switch to Secure Mode via the
web interface. To exit Secure Mode, press the Managed Mode button on the device to enter the
Managed Mode. For information about management modes, see "Management Modes" on page 50. For
information about saving Configuration files, see "Managing Files" on page 79
