Procedures
This chapter describes the following procedures:
• TFTP Server Setup: Prepares the TFTP server for transferring files to and from the unit. This procedure is used by
the other procedures that transfer files.
• Web Interface Image File Download: Upgrades the embedded software.
• Configuration Backup: Saves the configuration of the unit.
• Configuration Restore: Restores a previous configuration through configuration file download.
• Soft Reset to Factory Default: Resets the unit to the factory default settings through the Web or Command Line
Interface.
• Hard Reset to Factory Default: In some cases, it may be necessary to revert to the factory default settings (for
example, if you cannot access the unit or you lost the password for the Web Interface).
• Forced Reload: Completely resets the unit and erases the embedded software. Use this procedure only as a last
resort if the unit does not boot and the “Hard Reset to Factory Default” procedure did not help. If you perform a
Forced Reload, you must download a new image file as described in Image File Download with the Bootloader.
• Image File Download with the Bootloader: If the unit does not contain embedded software, or the embedded software
is corrupt, you can use this procedure to download a new image file.
