Fiber Switching:
Description: Sets the fiber input switching policy. The default fiber input switching mode
is automatic with a 60 second valid time before switching from a bad input to a good input,
and always use A if both inputs are available. The input software switch can be manually
set to A or B input. The minimum time required for an input signal to remain valid before
automatically switching to it can also be set to a number of seconds other than the default.
The functionality can be changed to not automatically switch back to an input that becomes
good again, forcing the user to manually switch to the other input.

Front Panel Button:
Description: Disable the front panel button functionality. The front panel "DISPLAY"
button can be pressed momentarily and the system will display its current IP address using
the time display on the front panel. This is extremely useful in determining what IP address
the system was assigned without having to log into the box.
If the front panel button is pressed and held for more than 5 seconds then the system will
reset itself to the static IP address of 192.168.0.1. This enables a user to then be able to
access the box when a dhcp server is not available to assign an IP address to the system.
