- Can I downgrade the firmware after upgrading it to a Device-Lock version?
Users can downgrade or upgrade to Device-Lock firmware. However, for security reasons, we don’t allow users to downgrade from Device-Lock firmware to a normal version. If you require a downgrade, please contact our technical support team at support@volktek.com.
- The INS-8528 switch connects a ring through 4 media converters (MC). When one fiber is broken, does the fast ring still work? Or can only a broken copper wire can trigger the fast ring to work?
The MC doesn't support LFP (Link Fail Pass-through). The Xpress Ring works when it receives a link down notification from the forwarding port to change the state of the blocking port. This means that it will work under the following conditions:
- The connection from Arbiter to MC is linked down (forward copper port link down).
- If the fiber port link is down, then MC must support LFS that must be enabled. - What is the purpose of the Device Lock feature?
Device Lock is a customized feature designed to lock the switch to a particular network. By enabling the Device Lock feature, the switch will function only in the configured domain and will not function in any other network, thereby reducing device thefts at the last mile.
- What are the roles of the Device Lock feature?
Master, Slave, and Master-slave.
- How to ensure that my Volktek switches are not accessible to anyone if stolen?
Enable the Device Lock feature to restrict unauthorized authentication.
