Setting The Mode Switch - Cabletron Systems 6E122-26 User Manual

After changing the position of switch 6, DO NOT reapply power
NOTE
to the chassis or reset the module until there is a station acting
as a BootP server, which contains the image file.
• Switch 6 – After changing the position of switch 6 and restarting the
module, the 6E12X-26 and 6E13X-25 request a new image download
until they either receive a new image or the RESET button on the front
panel is pressed. When the RESET button is pressed, the 6E12X-26
and 6E13X-25 continue trying to contact a BootP server, but will time
out in approximately one minute. If the module times out, the image is
downloaded from its FLASH memory.
• Switch 7 – Clear NVRAM. Changing the position of this switch resets
NVRAM on either the next power up or the next operation of the front
panel RESET switch. ALL user-entered parameters, such as IP
addresses, subnet masks, SNMP traps, and bridging functions are
restored to their factory default settings.
• Switch 8 – Reset Password/Community Strings. Changing the position
of this switch clears only the user-entered passwords stored in
NVRAM, and restores the default passwords. Once the 6E12X-26 and
6E13X-25 are reset, the passwords can either be reentered or the
default passwords (Public and ENTER) may be used.
Do not change the position of switch 8 unless it is necessary to
NOTE
reset the module super-user configured passwords to their
factory default settings.
