C H A P T E R 5 Managing the Switch

	Recovery Manager
Purpose	Use the Recovery Manager if the software in your switch is corrupted
	or a software download to the switch failed, or you have moved a con-
	figured switch from another net, forgotten the switch’s IP address, or
	simply lost control of the switch.

Using the Recovery Mode Manager

Note The Recovery Mode Manager only works when the switch is set in Recovery Mode.

To regain control of the switch:

1Locate the Reset button on the front of the switch. Use a pointed object, for example a paper clip, press and hold (approximately 40 seconds) the Reset button until the Status LED blinks green slowly.

2In Intel Device View, select Tools>Recovery Manager.

3Follow the instructions in the wizard to regain control.

DNS IP Conversion Tool

Using the DNS IP Tool	DNS names are resolved by a DNS server or a Hosts file. The station
	running Intel Device View must be configured to use the DNS server
	when a Hosts file is not used. To convert DNS names to IP addresses:
	1	Type in the DNS name.
	2	Click Convert.
	3	The IP address is displayed.
	4	Click Close.
