Resetting the Unit

Loading a Configuration

The Wireless Bridge Manager allows you to easily reload a saved configuration file to the
currently selected bridge. To reload a saved configuration file, follow these steps:
1 From the Wireless Bridge Configuration screen (see "Selecting a Bridge to Configure"
on page 15), select the Tools tab.
2 Double-click the Load Config From File icon.
The Open screen appears, and displays all the saved configuration files.
3 Select the saved configuration file from the Open window.
4 Click Open to load the configuration.
A message is displayed once the configuration file has been successfully loaded.
If you experience a persistent problem with your wireless bridge, you can perform a reset
of the bridge unit in a way that does not erase your configuration settings. Resetting the
unit from the Reset Unit icon clears:
Some of the error log (see "Event Log" on page 33)
I
The bridge unit forwarding table (see "Forward Table" on page 34)
I
During the reset, bridging through the unit will be temporarily interrupted, and the bridge
will have to "relearn" the forwarding table.
If resetting the unit does not fix the problem, then you may have to perform a "hard"
reset that completely restores all the bridge configuration settings to their initial factory
default values. (See "Resetting the Unit to Factory Defaults" on page 28.) To help
diagnose the problem, see Chapter 5, "Troubleshooting Bridge Problems."
