Network-Activated Config Mode
26+
-----------------------------
27+
28+
Some models lack a physical button for activating Config Mode. In this case,
29+
Gluon supports Network-Activated Config Mode. A Linux-utility for activation
30+
can be built by invoking ``make enter-config-mode``.
31+
32+
To enter Config Mode on a device supporting this method, start the
33+
``enter-config-mode`` application in the Gluon root-directory. Start
34+
this tool with the name of the network-interface connected to the target
35+
device as argument. Connect to the LAN-Port (or WAN port if the device has
36+
only a signle interface) and power-cycle the device.
37+
38+
Make sure your computer and the target device are directly connected without
39+
an intermediate switch.
40+
41+
This feature is supported for the following list of devices
