Gunvald,
ssh access is currently not available.
We are planning to make this available in a future release very soon
If you are unable to reach the APs external reset button, you may be able to reset the AP with the following procedure.
Operators may reset an AP or STA to default factory configuration by a sequence of power cycling (removing power to the device. This procedure allows operators to perform a factory default reset without a tower climb or additional tools.
Procedure:
1. Remove the AP or STA’s Ethernet cable from the power supply, then reconnect the Ethernet cable to re-supply power to the AP or STA device (1st power cycle)
2. Remove the AP or STA’s Ethernet cable from the power supply, then reconnect the Ethernet cable to re-supply power to the AP or STA device (2nd power cycle)
3. Remove the AP or STA’s Ethernet cable from the power supply, then reconnect the Ethernet cable to re-supply power to the AP or STA device (3rd power cycle)
4. Remove the AP or STA’s Ethernet cable from the power supply, then reconnect the Ethernet cable to re-supply power to the AP or STA device (4th power cycle)
5. After the 4th power cycle, the radio is reset to its factory default configuration
Wow! i think this is a bad idea or a bad option to reset to factory default…
what happen if by a casual abnormal connection of the cable or by a outage of power, this power cycle procedure is not intentioned but cause the reset of configuration?
