Chapter 5 Configuring the Bridge for the First Time

Using the IP Setup Utility

Using IPSU to Set the Bridge’s IP Address and SSID

You can use IPSU to change the default IP address (10.0.0.1) of the bridge. You can also set the bridge’s SSID at the same time.

Note The computer you use to assign an IP address to the bridge must have an IP address in the same subnet as the bridge (10.0.0.x).

Note IPSU can change the bridge’s IP address and SSID only from their default settings. After the IP address and SSID are changed, IPSU cannot change them again.

Follow these steps to assign an IP address and an SSID to the bridge:

Step 1 Double-click the IPSU icon on your computer desktop to start the utility.

Step 2 Click the Set Parameters radio button in the Function box (see Figure 5-4).

Figure 5-4 IPSU Set Parameters Screen

Step 3 Enter the bridge’s MAC address in the Device MAC ID field. The bridge’s MAC address is printed on the label on the bottom of the unit. It should contain six pairs of hexadecimal digits. Your bridge’s MAC address might look like this example:

004096xxxxxx

Note The MAC address field is not case sensitive.

Step 4 Enter the IP address you want to assign to the bridge in the IP Address field.

Step 5 Enter the SSID you want to assign to the bridge in the SSID field.

Note You cannot set the SSID without also setting the IP address. However, you can set the IP address without setting the SSID.
