Appendix C: Optional Installations and Mode Switch Bank Settings

Switch 6 – Forced BootP. The BootP server references the location of a station acting as a Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) server containing the 2H22-08R image file.

NOTE

Do NOT attempt a Forced BootP unless a BootP server has been configured for the 2H22-08R.

When the position of Switch 6 is changed and the power is cycled to the 2H22-08R, the device requests the image file location from the BootP server and uses TFTP to download the image from the TFTP server. If one of these requirements is not met, the 2H22-08R will continue to request either the BootP server or the TFTP server until the RESET button on the 2H22-08R is pressed. Once the RESET button is pressed, the 2H22-08R resets after one minute and loads the image stored in FLASH memory.

Switch 7 – Clear NVRAM. Changing the position of this switch resets NVRAM on either the next power-up or the next operation of the front panel RESET button. All user-entered parameters, such as the IP address, device names, etc., are reset to the factory default settings. Once the 2H22-08R resets, you can either use the factory default settings or reenter your own parameters.

Switch 8 – Reset Password/Community Strings. Changing the position of this switch clears user-entered passwords stored in NVRAM, and restores the factory default passwords on either the next power-up or the next operation of the front panel RESET button. Once the 2H22-08R resets, you can either use the factory default settings or reenter your own passwords.

NOTE

Do not change the position of switch 8 unless it is necessary to reset the 2H22-08R super-user configured passwords to their factory default settings.
