This feature is duplicated from earlier (page xx).
RESET DEVICE
The MDN may be need a “soft reset” to allow the device to
clear its current communications buffer and re-initialize its
processing, which includes re-requesting of a DHCP address.
This feature is intended to allow the user to remotely reset
the unit and does not restore the factory default state.
SET TO DEFAULT CONFIGURATION
Choose this button to reset the MDN back to its factory
defaults (listed on page 10).
“SOFT” RESTARTS
A soft restart may periodically be performed by the MDN to
automatically attempt to rectify a problem it may be
experiencing. The MDN will perform a soft restart under
the following conditions:
1.
If the MDN is not receiving an NTP poll response or an
NTP broadcast response depending on which mode the
NTDS is in.
2.
If the MDN is set to use DHCP and no DHCP server can
be found.
The timeout before doing a soft restart is not less than ten
minutes. Several factors can increase this time.
1.
The soft restart will be delayed by two hours if a
connection is made by Telnet or WinDiscovery.
2.
The soft restart could be delayed if the user changes
the default parameters for NTP poll retries/timeouts or
the NTP broadcast times out. For example, if the NTP
broadcast timeout is increased to 60 minutes the soft
restart timeout will also be increased to 60 minutes.
