A second software method to reset all settings to the original
defaults is the Ping to Defaults .
The technique is identical to that used for the Ping of Life , except
that another MAC address is used, i.e. 01–90–D0–80–01–FF.
Proceed as follows:
Step Action and Description
1 Turn off the STWireless.
Open an MSDOS command prompt window (Windows OS), or a
2
terminal window (UNIX, Linux).
3 Add a static entry to the ARP cache, according to following syntax:
arp –s <IP address> 01-90-D0-80-01-FF
This <IP address> can be any address within your subnet as
long as it is not used by any other member of your local network.
4 Verify if this step was successful. Execute arp –a
In the entries list, your arp –s command entry should be added.
5 Turn on the STWireless and allow the POST to end.
6 Ping the IP address <IP address> you just entered in the ARP
cache: ping <IP address>
7 You must clear the entry in the ARP cache by issuing the following
command:
arp –d <IP address>
8 If needed, reconfigure the STWireless's IP address.
The IP address
<IP address>
is not assimilated by your STWireless. The STWireless will restart
with the original defaults, including the default IP address
10.0.0.38.
