its configuration memory. The IPv4 address will be reset to 10.0.0.101. The root
password will be reset to the original default password. After clearing all configuration,
the BB3-6101/MX-61 will automatically restart. Remove the jumper when you see the
indication of restart after about 30 seconds, which is both LEDs coming on solid on the
RJ45 Ethernet connector and remaining on for a couple of seconds. If you miss the
start of reboot, both LEDs on the RJ45 will come on and stay on. It will now be
attempting the firmware update, but you can abort that by simply powering down the
BB3-6101/MX-61. If both LEDs on the RJ45 jack come on and remain on, remove the
jumper and then power cycle the BB3-6101/MX-61.
Once you have regained access to the device, go to the File Manager page, execute
the Clear All configuration action, then select the file named as "Boot configuration"
and execute the Save XML Config File action to wipe out any configuration normally
saved in the XML configuration file.
Note: The forced hard reset will restore HTTP web access and disable HTTPS web
access. The forced hard reset will also restore FTP access to allow FTP firmware
uploads if needed.
Note: The hard reset of configuration also means all of your resource allocations are
reset to original factory defaults. If you want resource allocations that are different,
you will need to repeate the allocation setup as described in Section 3.4.
Firmware Update Recovery:
Installing this jumper prior to power-up causes the server to go into TFTP firmware
update mode. Normally you would perform a firmware update by simply uploading a
new image.bin file (provided by Control Solutions tech support) using the
BB3-6101/MX-61's internal FTP server and a command line FTP session on your PC
(Linux or Windows command line). Detailed instructions are included in the zip file that
also contains the applicable image.bin file.
Should the FTP upload fail for some reason, then you need to resort to the TFTP
upload method as the fallback method. Full details on how to go about this can be
found under the topic "Restoring a corrupt application image" at
