Ethernet Auto Mdix: This enables/disables the Auto Medium Dependent Interface
(MDI)/Medium Dependent Interface Crossover (MDIX) capability. Default is “Enabled”.
Drop Ethernet Link On Wireless Link Down: When this option is enabled the Ethernet link
is momentarily dropped when the wireless link goes down. This feature is used to indicate to
the connected network equipment that this Ethernet link is no longer available, thus causing
STP (Spanning Tree Protocol) to re-route packets through an alternative link.
All of the above attributes are non-volatile, once set they will be used by the unit even after a
power on reboot. A number of attributes, such as IP Address, Subnet Mask and Gateway IP
Address and VLAN settings will require a reboot before they are used. If any of these
attributes are changed a reboot screen appears asking the user to verify the reboot (Figure
32 or Figure 33).

This will be followed by a pop-up dialogue box asking to confirm the action.
NOTE: At this point you will lose connection to the unit. If you have just changed the IP
Address you now have to reconnect to the unit using the address just set.
