To close a session (local users only):
1. From the side navigation bar, select Local Session.
2. Select the Disconnect Active Session checkbox.
3.4 Appliance Tools
From the Unit Overview screen, you can view the appliance name and type. You can also perform basic
appliance tasks.
3.4.1 Rebooting the switch
To reboot the switch:
1. From the side navigation bar, select Unit View - Appliance - Overview to open the Unit
Overview screen.
2. Click Reboot.
3. A dialog box appears, warning you that all active sessions will be disconnected. Click OK.
NOTE: If you are using the local UI, the screen will be blank while the switch reboots. If you are using
the remote OBWI, a message will appear to let you know that the interface is waiting on the appliance
to complete the reboot.
3.4.2 Run diagnostics
You can run a diagnostics test on your switch. When you run the diagnostics, the LAN connections are
tested, online and offline IQ modules are identified and suspect devices are detected. Suspect devices are
attached devices that are the wrong brand for the appliance.
3.4.3 Upgrading the switch firmware
You can update your switch with the latest firmware available.
NOTE: The preferred method for updating the firmware is to use the DSView software. See the DSView
Installer/User Guide for detailed instructions.
After the Flash memory is reprogrammed with the upgrade, the switch performs a soft reset, which
terminates all IQ module sessions. A target device experiencing an IQ module firmware update may not
display, or may display as disconnected. The target device will appear normally when the Flash update is
completed.
CAUTION: Disconnecting an IQ module during a firmware update or cycling power to the target
device will render the module inoperable and require the IQ module to be returned to the factory
for repair.
