CONFIGURATION FILE MANAGEMENT
The configuration file contains all of the settings that customize the operation of the LPS-20x.
You can save and restore the configuration file manually, automatically, or with a tool like cURL.
MANUAL UPDATES
Use the Config file management option on the Maintenance menu to manage your configuration files.
The following three options are available:
Backup Configuration File
This option enables you to backup your configuration settings so they can be easily restored in case of failure. This
option is also used when you want to directly edit the configuration file (refer to WPA Security on page 110).
Reset Configuration
Use this option to return the configuration of the LPS-20x to its factory default settings.
!
IMPORTANT
When an LPS-20x is restarted, it automatically initializes itself to the current address (default is
192.168.1.1). If the DHCP client is enabled on the Internet port, it takes about 30 seconds after the
restart for the DHCP client to request an address. Therefore, for a short period of time after
restarting, the LPS-20x may conflict with another device on the network. This will usually not be
an issue. However, if you are using an automated tool (like cURL) to update the configuration/
firmware on several LPS-20xs at the same time, you may experience difficulties. It is
recommended that you schedule your updates to occur in succession, leaving a three minute
interval between each device.
WARNING
Resetting to factory defaults sets the administrator password to ‘admin’ and resets all configuration
settings.
