Upload

Click Upload to begin the upload process.

 

 

After you see a “restore configuration successful” screen, you must then wait one minute before logging into the GPON Device again.

The GPON Device automatically restarts in this time causing a temporary network disconnect.

If you uploaded the default configuration file you may need to change the IP address of your computer to be in the same subnet as the default GPON Device IP address shown on the cover.

If the upload was not successful, the following screen will appear. Click Return to go back to the Configuration screen.

5.9.3 Reset to Factory Defaults

Click the Reset button to clear all user-entered configuration information and return the GPON Device to its factory defaults. You can also press the RESET button on the rear panel to reset the factory defaults of your GPON Device (see Section 1.5 on page 7 for details).

5.10 Restart

System restart allows you to reboot the GPON Device without turning the power off. Click Maintenance > Tools > Restart. Click Restart to have the GPON Device reboot. This does not affect the GPON Device's configuration.
