Performing Diagnostics 11 - 3

Resetting the Conﬁguration (Reset)

Use the reset option to return the Ident, Radio, or Filter portions of the

conﬁguration to the default settings. The unit will prompt for the portion

of the conﬁguration to change. By entering ident_save, the unit will

return everything except the Ident conﬁguration to default settings. By

entering ident_default, the unit will return only the Ident conﬁguration

to default settings.

Using the Network Menu

Network parameters are set up using the Network Menu. To access this

menu, select Diagnostics from the Main Menu then Network from the

Diagnostics Menu.

Starting a Telnet Session (Connect)

The connect option is used to start a telnet session with a remote unit on

the infrastructure to gain access to its Console Menu. The connect

option can also be used to access any remote node (PC or Server) that

supports telnet access.

The connection may be initiated using the remote node’s IP address. The

connection is completely routable and the destination may be anywhere

in the internet.

If the connection is to be made to another Aironet unit which has not

been assigned an IP address, start the connection using the MAC level

infrastructure address of the unit. This connection uses a proprietary

protocol which is not routable. The destination must lie on the local

LAN. This is useful when assigning IP addresses to a large number of

Aironet Wireless Clients.
