Replacing an ODU
Prior to any action ensure that both ODUs have the same software version. You can see this
on the inventory panels for each site.
For Site A, click Site A | Inventory and note the ODU software version. Repeat this for Site
B using Site B | Inventory.
If either ODU has an old software version, perform a software upgrade. It is important to con-
figure the new ODU identically to the old ODU to avoid configuration mismatches, which will
disrupt the link.
An ODU may be reconfigured in several ways.
• Use the backup configuration
If a backup of the configuration is available, restore that configuration using Site A|
Restore. Recall that backup files are linked to a MAC address. This won't work for
an identical replacement ODU.
• Manual configuration
The new ODU can be configured manually according to the link configuration.
Remember to use the same settings for Link ID, channels, link password, IP
addresses, and names.

Restoring Factory Setup


To restore factory setup:
• Use Site Configuration A or B, and then Operations | Restore Defaults. Always
restore the over-the-air site (B) first.
