You can reset all of the Bridge’s network connections, forcing
users and devices to rekey and reauthenticate.
If
Cached Auth. Credentials is Disabled users are prompted to
re-enter their user names and passwords in order to re-
establish their network connections. If
Allow Cached Credentials
is
Enabled (the default) locally authenticated users are
reauthenticated transparently, using their cached user
credentials (Section 4.1.13).
Resetting connections can be useful after network
reconfiguration, as part of a diagnostic procedure, or if an
expected device is missing from the network.
