Chapter 5 Configuring the Bridge for the First Time

Assigning Basic Settings

Follow these steps to connect to the bridge locally:

Step 1 Make sure that the PC you intend to use is configured to obtain an IP address automatically, or manually assign it an IP address from 10.0.0.31 to 10.0.0.40. Connect your PC to the power injector using a Category 5 Ethernet cable. You can use either a crossover cable or a straight-through cable.

Note When you connect your PC to the bridge’s power injector or reconnect your PC to the wired LAN, you might need to release and renew the IP address on the PC. On most PCs, you can perform a release and renew by rebooting your PC or by entering ipconfig /release and ipconfig /renew commands in a command prompt window. Consult your PC operating instructions for detailed instructions.

Step 2 Power up the power injector.

Step 3 Follow the steps in the “Assigning Basic Settings” section on page 5-4. If you make a mistake and need to start over, follow the steps in the “Resetting the Bridge to Default Settings” section on page 5-2.

Step 4 After configuring the bridge, remove the Ethernet cable from your PC and connect the power injector to your wired LAN.

Assigning Basic Settings

After you determine or assign the bridge’s IP address, you can browse to the bridge’s Express Setup page and perform an initial configuration. Follow these steps:

Step 1 Open your Internet browser. You must use Microsoft Internet Explorer (version 5.x or later) or Netscape Navigator (version 4.x).

Step 2 Enter the bridge’s IP address in the browser address line and press Enter. An Enter Network Password screen appears.

Step 3 Press Tab to bypass the Username field and advance to the Password field.

Step 4 Enter the case-sensitive password Cisco and press Enter. The Summary Status page appears. Figure 5-1shows the Summary Status page.
