4.7.2 Recover
To supply the coded UDP packet the “recover” utility is provided with the system software in two
forms.
recover-dos.exe - For use with a DOS prompt under Microsoft Windows.
Recover-unix - For use with Linux installations utilizing glibc 2.1.3.
4.7.3 Procedure to restore the default configuration
1. Connect a PC (Windows or Linux) to the wallbox of the unit, ensuring that there is
appropriate connectivity at the physical and IP levels.
2. Start the recovery utility. A sequence of dots will be displayed to indicate
successful network transmissions.
[root@temp SU_TEMPLATE]# ./recover-unix ethernet
SU/AP recovery client
……………………………..
3. Restart the AB-Access unit.
4. When the recover utility terminates, the AB-Access unit has been successfully
configured and can be contacted over the physical interface via a telnet session.
5. It is best to do a full system upgrade after a unit has been recovered to a state that
IP connectivity is regained. This will insure the unit will function properly once
redeployed.
4.7.4 Disabling the RTFD Feature
RTFD can be disabled by writing a file to flash with the name “no_rtfd”. The file must be a
text file; i.e. only containing ASCII characters. A suggested first line for the file is “disable RTFD” –
though the actual content of the file will not be referenced: only the presence or absence of the file is
significant.
