Function
Software upgrade and network management
The media dependent interface (MDI) standard is typically used on the Ethernet interface of network
adaptors. The media dependent interface crossover (MDI-X) standard is typically used on hubs or LAN
switches.
RESET button
The RESET button is used to reset the current MPU. The RUN LED goes off when the MPU is reset,
flashes fast (at 8 Hz) when BootWare is running, and flashes slowly (at 1 Hz) after the system is booted
and operates normally.
z
If you perform no save operation before resetting the device, the current system configuration will
not be saved.
z
Never press the RESET button when the device boots up with the RUN LED blinking fast or when
the device is accessing the CF card; otherwise, the file system of the device may be damaged.
Clock
The F5000-A5 is designed with an interface clock module, which provides the system time. You can set
the system time through the command line interface.
The clock module continues working even if a power failure occurs to the device, ensuring a correct
system time next time the device boots. With the device powered off, the clock module can work for at
least 10 years.
