understand what you are doing before saving any changes.
Admin URL (Hostname)
This is a 'Nickname' for your IP address. Instead of typing in the complete IP address in a Web-browser address bar (to access
admin pages), you only need to type a URL (not case-sensitive). This URL is 'xyfi' and cannot be changed.
Admin IP Address
Acronym for 'Internet Protocol' address. This is the address to access the admin pages of the XYFI. Type the IP address in a
Web-browser address bar and the admin log in pages will appear. The default IP address is 172.22.2.1.
IP is the protocol within TCP/IP (Internet protocol Suite) that is used to send data between computers over the Internet. An IP
address is an assigned number used to identify a computer that is connected to a network through TCP/IP. An IP address
consists of four numbers (each of which can be no greater than 255) separated by periods, such as 172.22.2.1.

Subnet Mask

A mask used to determine to what subnet an IP address belongs.
Typically, a subnet may represent all the machines at one geographic location, in one building, or on the same local area
network (LAN). Having an organization's network divided into sub-nets allows it to be connected to the Internet with a single
shared network address. Similar in form to an IP address and typically provided by an ISP.
An example of a subnet mask value is 255.255.0.0.
DHCP Range start
Allows a computer to join an IP-based network without having a pre-configured IP address. DHCP Range Start assigns unique
IP addresses to devices using your start number.
DHCP Range end
Allows a computer to join an IP-based network without having a pre-configured IP address. DHCP Range End is the last unique
IP addresses it will create.
DHCP Lease time
Each device will be assigned an IP address by the DHCP server for this amount of time, when it connects to the network. When
the lease expires, the server will determine if the computer has disconnected from the network. If it has, the server may
reassign this IP address to a newly-connected computer. This feature ensures that IP addresses that are not in use will become
available for other computers on the network.
3 options for entering a value - s (seconds), m (minutes) or h (hours). When inserting the value please enter s, m or h behind
the value...Examples 8s , 15m and 24h

3.5.6 Restore XYFI
It is possible to restore the XYFI to its default/factory settings.
You do this by pressing the LED/WPS ('side') button on the actual XYFI device and then plugging it into a power outlet. The
LED/WPS button must be kept pressed until it is restored.
Another possibility is to do this via the administration pages.
After approx. 15-20 seconds the LED will start to flash 'red' and 'green' and will continue for approx. 10 seconds. (It will only flash
red/green when restoring using the physical LED button, not when using soft button).
When the LED becomes 'amber', the XYFI is restored to its factory settings.
