AastraLink Pro 160 Administrator Guide
Reinstalling System Software Using Recovery Mode
For non-DHCP Networks
If the AastraLink Pro 160 was not using DHCP to obtain an IP address on the
LAN, then to communicate with the AastraLink, you can use a direct,
back-to-back Ethernet connection between the AastraLink WAN interface and a
PC.
In recovery mode, the AastraLink operates as a DHCP server for the private
192.168.100.100/24 network using the WAN port. So, when you connect the
AastraLink to PC as described above, the AastraLink Recovery Mode DHCP
server assigns a 192.168.100.10x address to the PC.
Once you have established communication between your PC and the AastraLink
Pro 160, you then access the AastraLink Recovery UI to set the AastraLink Pro
160 back to its factory default settings
Use the following procedure to establish communication between your
AastraLink Pro 160 and your PC.
