42CHAPTER 3: CONFIGURING THE BRIDGE

Applying Settings

After you set the UART settings, network serial port settings, and operation mode, select Apply to make the settings take effect.

The socket can be substantially established between a client and server; that is, a Bridge in server mode and the other in client mode. The Bridge with the Network Serial Port option set cannot work alone. Generally, a Bridge is set to server mode first, which listens to a designated port. The other Bridge is then set to client mode, which connects to the designated port on the IP address of the Bridge set to server mode.

Resetting the Bridge If the Bridge stops responding correctly, you can perform a reset, which disrupts the network association temporarily, but does not affect Bridge configuration settings that have already been applied with Apply.

To reset the Bridge, under Tools, click Reset Wireless Workgroup Bridge.

In the next page, click Reset.

The Bridge can also be reset using the Wireless Infrastructure Device

Manager (Widman). Right-click the Bridge in Widman, and then select

Reset.
