Model M - Sentinel 100

Performing a Factory Reset
Information
The Factory reset alters any persistent configuration data of the Mediatrix unit.
Steps
1)
Insert a small, unbent paper clip into the hole of the
Reset/Default
button, located on the
Mediatrix unit.
Note:
Do not release the
Reset/Default
button before the LEDs stop blinking and are steadily ON.
This can last from 12 to 16 seconds. If you leave the inserted pin longer, no action will be taken which
is useful if you accidentally pushed the button and do not need any action to be applied.
2)
Release the paper clip.
Result
All configuration parameters are reset to their default value. The unit can then be contacted via
its WAN interface DHCP-provided IP address (ETH1 or WAN on the 4102S), or via its LAN interface
default IP address 192.168.0.10 (ETH2 or LAN on the 4102S).
Disabling the Rescue Interface
Information
By default the Rescue interface is disabled. However, after a partial reset the rescue interface is
enabled.
IMPORTANT
:
The Rescue interface is bound to the unit's WAN port (wan for the Mediatrix 4102S,
and ETH1 for all other Mediatrix units). The IP address of the Rescue interface is 192.168.0.1 (IPv4)
or an IPv6 Link Local address.
