Leaving A Network - npg 200M LAN Manual Del Usuario

6.3 Leaving a Network

A network exists. The user wants to remove one device, the 'leaver', from that network, for
whatever reason. He may want to remove the device from service altogether or have it join
another logical network.
1. Press the pushbutton on the 'leaver' for at least 10 seconds. The device will reset
and restart with a random NMK.
2. Wait for reset to complete.
The Power LED on the 'leaver' will momentarily extinguish during reset, flash during restart
then illuminate steadily. No errors can occur.
Once the process completes, the user may disconnect the device from the medium or join
it to another logical network on the same medium.
