26 Preparing the Managed Access Points

Managed mode can only be discovered and managed by the 3Com 
Unified Switch 24. To return the access point to the default Stand-alone 
mode, refer to “Resetting Access Points” below.

To recover an access point that was inadvertently changed to Managed 
mode, perform a long reset as described below. The long reset changes 
the access point’s start-up mode back to the factory default of 
Stand-alone mode. Using a long reset is the only way to return an access 
point from Managed mode to Stand-alone mode. To perform a long 
reset, during power-up press and hold the Reset button for at least 20 
seconds.

The Reset button on the access points can be used to perform two 
different types of system reset: a short reset, and a long reset.

Short Reset  A short reset deletes the current configuration file and 
restores the factory settings. The short reset does not change the start-up 
mode of the access point, so if the start-up mode of the access point is in 
Stand-alone it will remain in Stand-alone mode. If the start-up mode of 
the access point is in Managed it will remain in Managed mode.

To perform a short reset, press and hold the Reset button for at least 
5 seconds (but not more than 20 seconds).

Long Reset  A long reset changes the start-up mode of the access point 
back to the factory default mode of Stand-alone. This is only used if the 
access point was inadvertently changed to Managed mode and you want 
to return it to Stand-alone mode. A long reset is the only way to return 
from Managed mode to Stand-alone mode.

To perform a long reset, press and hold the Reset button for at least 20 
seconds.
