•  Link-layer address (LL) 
The link-layer address is based on the MAC address. The value is regenerated each 
time the factory settings are restored. 
•  Configuration mode 
Select the mode from the drop-down list. The following modes are possible: 
–  Automatic Save 
Automatic backup mode. Approximately 1 minute after the last parameter change 
or before you restart the device, the configuration is automatically saved. 
In addition to this, the following message appears in the display area "Changes will 
be saved automatically in x seconds. Click 'Write Startup Config' to save the 
changes immediately." 
Note 
Interrupting the save
 
Saving starts only after the timer in the message has elapsed. How long saving 
takes depends on the device.
 
During the save, the message "Saving 
configuration data in progress. Please do 
not switch off the device." is displayed.
 
  Do not switch off the device immediately after the timer has elapsed. 
–  Trial 
Trial mode. In Trial mode, although changes are adopted, they are not saved in the 
configuration file (startup configuration).  
To save changes in the configuration file, use the "Write startup config" button. 
The display area also shows the message "Trial Mode Active – Press the "Write 
Startup Config" button to make your settings persistent" as soon as there are 
unsaved modifications. This message can be seen on every WBM page until the 
changes made have either been saved or the device has been restarted.
