@ -22,6 +22,27 @@ If you have access to the console of the node, there is the
``gluon-enter-setup-mode`` command, which reboots a node into Config Mode.
Network-Activated Config Mode
-----------------------------
Some models lack a physical button for activating Config Mode. In this case,
Gluon supports Network-Activated Config Mode. A Linux-utility for activation
can be built by invoking ``make tools``.
To enter Config Mode on a device supporting this method, start the
``enter-network-config-mode`` application in the ``tools`` subdirectory. Start
this tool with the name of the network-interface connected to the target
device as argument. Connect to the LAN-Port (or WAN port if the device has
only a signle interface) and power-cycle the device.
Make sure your computer and the target device are directly connected without
an intermediate switch.
This feature is supported for the following list of devices
* ZyXEL NWA55AXE
