Overriding Forgotten IP Addresses or Passwords on AP and SM
A small adjunctive product allows you to temporarily override some AP/SM settings
and thereby regain control of the module. This override plug is needed for access to
the module in any of the following cases:
You have forgotten either
o the IP address assigned to the module.
o the password that provides access to the module.
The module has been locked by the No Remote Access feature.
You want local access to a module that has had the 802.3 link disabled in the
Configuration page.
You can configure the module such that, when it senses the override plug, it
responds by either
resetting the LAN1 IP address to 169.254.1.1, allowing access through the default
configuration without
changing
the configuration, whereupon you is able to view and
reset any non-default values as you wish.
resetting all configurable parameters to their factory default values.
