Primary Responder mode

You can use the Primary Responder mode configuration setting to manually enable the EX15 device to be in an AT&T FirstNet-compliant mode (Primary Responder mode). When a device is in Primary Responder mode, certain firmware features are disabled. See Differences between standard firmware operation and Primary Responder mode.

The Primary Responder mode configuration setting is available in the 23.9.x and newer firmware. This replaces the Primary Responder firmware that was available prior to the 23.9.x firmware release.

Primary Responder firmware prior to 23.9.x firmware release

You may have a device that has Primary Responder firmware prior to 23.9.x installed on it. When you update to 23.9, the device will change its device type to be a non-PR product. If you have a configuration template setup for your PR device running firmware older than 23.9.x, you will need to create a new configuration template after updating firmware on your device.

Enable Primary Responder Mode

If you enable Primary Responder Mode, your device will reboot and the device's configuration will change to use the new mode. There are certain firmware features that are disabled in this mode.

Disable Primary Responder Mode

If you disable Primary Responder mode, the device's configuration is erased and the device will reboot. You will then need to reconfigure the device to the desired configuration.
