For details about using segment numbers and names for an access point,
which contains only one flash memory segment, see “Understanding the
Access Point Segments” on page 270.

FB

Purpose:

Makes an inactive segment the active segment. Because the AT-WA7500
and AT-WA7501 have only one flash memory segment, this command has
no affect on the access points. This command is included here for
backward compatibility with older scripts only.

Syntax:

FB

bootsegment

datasegment

where:

bootsegment

is the name or number of the boot segment to be
activated.

datasegment

is the name or number of the data segment to be
activated.

Example:

These examples apply to non-AT-WA7500 and AT-WA7501 products and
are included for your reference only.

To make segment 2 the active boot segment and segment 4 the active
data segment, enter:

FB 2 4

You can use an asterisk instead of a segment name if you want to leave
that segment unchanged. For example, to leave the active boot segment
unchanged and make segment 4 the active data segment, you could
enter:

FB * 4

After loading software into the access point a common task is to activate
the new software. To activate the new software, enter:

FB IB: ID:

This command activates the inactive boot and data segments. You do not
need to know which of the boot and data segment numbers the flash is
loaded into.
