Configuration Switches
The rear panel contains four small switches, numbered 1 through four (left to right). These are used for
configuration.
The normal position for all switches is DOWN.
Switch 1
This switch immediately resets the unit . When placed in the UP position, it resets the router just as if it had
been power cycled. It should then be returned to the down position.
Switch 2
This switch places the unit in basic configuration mode. It is used to provide a terminal interface for initial
configuration. Powering up the unit with this switch UP, provides a terminal attached to the Serial-3 port
with a login prompt and the ability to manage the unit with a command line
. This method is used to install
an initial IP address in the router.
Switch 3
Factory use only.
Switch 4
Factory use only.
LED Indicators
There are two red LED indicators on the rear panel adjacent to each LAN connector and four red LED
indicators on the front panel near each 9-pin serial connector.
