The NW8204 is a powerful maintenance and diagnostic tool. In the event that a
problem occurs during or after NK822x configuration, you use the NW8204 main-
tenance tool's FTP (File Transfer Protocol) and diagnostic interface to locate where
the problem occurred so you can resolve it. This tool provides functionalities for
(but not limited to) the following:
– Downloading firmware;
– Setting IP addresses;
– Loading default configurations;

shooting.
