Figure 7: "Show" Command Overview
8.4 Console Configuration Backup
The console configuration is backed up in the ETH-100’s battery backed SRAM. This allows the console configuration to be restored upon power-up. Although the battery inside the ETH-100 is rated to last approximately 10 years with no other power supplied to the unit (and longer when power is supplied to the unit), it may eventually require replacement at some point in the product’s lifetime. When this happens, the IP address, netmask, and default gateway settings will be lost upon power-down.
To ensure that these important settings can be recovered in the event of a battery failure, it is recommended that you record your IP address, netmask, and gateway settings in the notes section (section 13) of this manual for future reference.
