3 • Configuring the Matrix Switch for operation Model 6511RC User Manual
50 Using a browser to complete Model 6511RC configuration
Figure 29. Operator Actions buttons
From the
Home
page, the following actions can be performed:
• Record Current Configuration—clicking on this button (see figure 29) saves the current configuration
from volatile DRAM memory to FLASH memory. Once the configuration is saved into FLASH memory,
the configuration will not be lost even if the power is cycled on the 6511RC. Initially, changes made to the
6511RC configuration are stored in volatile DRAM, enabling the user to set the box up with a working
configuration before committing it to storage in FLASH. When you select Record Current Configuration,
the 6511RC stores your changes to FLASH memory.
Note
If you want to save the configuration changes that you have made,
you must click on
Record Current Configuration
, otherwise all con-
figuration changes will be lost if the power to the Model 6511RC is
turned off.
• Hard Reset—this button (see figure 29) causes the Model 6511RC to perform a cold restart. When you
select Hard Reset, the Matrix Switch confirms that you want to execute this command. Then, the Matrix
Switch will disconnect all current sessions, re-initialize the interfaces, and re-load configuration parameters
from FLASH.
• Set Factory Default Configuration—this button (see figure 29) clears out the configuration in FLASH and
loads the factory default parameters into FLASH memory. The factory default settings will not execute on
the Model 6511RC until it is re-booted by doing a Hard Reset.
Note
Set Factory Default Configuration (figure 29) will delete the Model
6511RC’s Ethernet IP address, any routing information, and any
other site-specific configuration changes made for your particular
installation. You will have to re-enter the Model 6511RC’s Ethernet
IP address and netmask using the front-panel control port in order to
gain access the HTTP/HTML Management pages again.
