About the Reset Button on the PRO2 Unit:
The PRO2 is designed with a Reset button on the hardware unit that can be used when a forgotten firmware
password prevents logging into the unit. The Reset button sets all configuration values back to factory default
settings, allowing the administrator to retrieve the admn/admn default administrator login.
To access the button on the unit, you need a non-conductive metallic tool that fits inside the recess. If you press
and hold the Reset button on the unit for more than 15 seconds, the reset action will terminate.
Note: This method of physical access to the unit will not work if the Reset button has already been disabled by
the administrator through the firmware GUI at Configuration > Access > General > Configuration
Reset Button, or through the firmware CLI with the set access button [enabled/disabled] command.
For security, the administrator can choose to disable the button through firmware to inhiibit a user from causing
a reset on the unit.
Tools > View Log
This tool displays the internal system event log for viewing by the administrative user. The log records all
authentication attempts, power actions, configuration changes, and other system events, and also supports email
notifications.
System memory stores more than 4000 entries in a continuously aging log. For permanent off-system log storage,
the Syslog protocol is supported.
To filter the system log:
1. Type a text string in the Log Filter box.
2. Click the Filter button. The system/debug log is searched by the entered text and displays only the
matching entries. To clear the filtered page and return to a full system log, click the Clear button.
