12. This completes the process of setting the modem/router to parked configu-

ration mode, and it is now ready to be put back into service.

13. If the repaired unit is to be connected to the same plug, it will automatically

reinstate the unit as a member of the backup group. VMS identifies the unit

by its MAC address so if, for any reason, the failed unit is replaced with

another unit, you will have to go to VMS and drag the newly installed unit to

the appropriate plug on the power strip to complete its installation.

Caution: Failure to follow the discipline of connecting the repaired unit to the

correct plug on the remote controlled power strip will result in the unit

not being able to be turned off if it fails while acting as the primary

unit, resulting in the possibility of having two active units trying to

operate in the same role and consequently crashing the network.
