A push button is connected to a GPIO line of the processor to restore to defaults
configurations.
3.3.6 Watchdog Timer
The hardware design must provide a watchdog circuit, either internal to CPU or by
external logic that should generate a board-wide hardware reset if not ticked in 10 to
20 seconds, provide CPU the status indicating either power-on reset or waterdog reset,
and allow CPU reset this status back to default, power-on reset.
3.3.7 LED function
The hardware design must support one Board Status LED in Red Green Blue tri-color
to show the status of the AP and each individual color is turned ON/OFF by software
through a GPIO.
On each Ethernet RJ45, the hardware design should provide two integrated LEDs,
one Green and one Amber and connect Green and Amber LED to LED1 and LED2 of
VSC8601 respectively. Green LED on the left is ON when the link is established and is
Blinking when the link is up and transmitting and receiving and the right Amber LED is
OFF for half duplex or no link and is ON for full-duplex and the link is up. Both LEDs
should be directly controlled by Ethernet PHY and should allow software override to
turn both LEDs OFF either indirectly through PHY registers or directly through GPIOs.
