Checking Basic Configuration Settings

–Off indicates that the power injector-to-bridge link is not active—verify that the dual-coax cable connections are properly connected to the power injector, the grounding block, and the bridge. If the dual-coax cable is connected properly and the cable is not defective, contact technical support for assistance.

–Amber color indicates that an internal power injector problem—disconnect and reconnect the power injector power plug. If the problem continues, contact technical support for assistance contact technical support for assistance.

•Status LED

–Green or blinking green color indicates that the bridge is operating.

–Blinking amber color indicates that the bridge has not been detected by the power injector and that power is not being supplied to the bridge—verify that the dual-coax cable connectors are properly connected to the power injector, the grounding block, and the bridge. If the dual-coax cable is connected properly and not defective, contact technical support for assistance.

Checking Basic Configuration Settings

Mismatched basic settings are the most common causes of lost wireless connectivity. If the bridge does not associate with a remote bridge, check the following areas.

SSID

To associate, all bridges must use the same SSID. The bridge installation mode SSID is autoinstall and the normal mode default SSID is tsunami. You should verify that the SSID value shown on the Express Setup page is the same for all bridges. You should also verify that the bridges are configured for the proper network role; only one bridge can be configured as the root bridge.

Security Settings

Remote bridges attempting to authenticate to your bridge must support the same security options configured in the bridge, such as WEP, EAP or LEAP, MAC address authentication, Message Integrity Check (MIC), WEP key hashing, and 802.1X protocol versions.

If a non-root bridge is unable to authenticate to your root bridge, verify that the security settings are the same as your bridge settings. For additional information, refer to the Cisco Aironet 1400 Series Wireless Bridge Software Configuration Guide.
