If you have rendered your Roving Edge Infrastructure device inoperable because you shredded the master key as described in Shredding the Master Key for Roving Edge Infrastructure Devices, you can recover the device and return it to service by recovering the key.

Your device must be running and connected to your controlling host running terminal emulation software such as PuTTY to unlock the device. See Operating the Serial Console.
