System Administration
How to Restart the WS 2000 Wireless Switch
During the normal course of operations, the administrator might need to restart or reset the
switch. For example, changing certain configuration settings can require restarting the
switch for those settings to take effect.
1. Select System Configuration --> System Settings from the left menu.
2. Click the Restart WS 2000 button to restart the switch. A second window appears,
asking for confirmation.
3. Select the Restart button. Upon confirming the restart, the switch reboots. Typically,
normal communications with the switch are restored within a minute or two.
Note: Configuration settings are unaffected by the restart process;
however, all cumulative transmission and reception statistics are reset to
zero.
