Chapter 5 Initial Configuration

The wireless bridge offers a variety of management options, including a web-based interface, a command line interface (CLI), or using SNMP management software.

Most initial configuration steps can be made through the web browser interface using the Setup Wizard (page 5-4). However, for units that do not have a preset country code, you must first set the country code using the CLI.

Note: Units sold in some countries are not configured with a specific country code. You must use the CLI to set the country code and enable wireless operation (page 5-2).

The wireless bridge requests an IP address via DHCP by default. If no response is received from a DHCP server, then the wireless bridge uses the default address 192.168.2.2. If this address is not compatible with your network, you can first perform initial configuration using a PC that has IP settings compatible with this subnet (for example, 192.168.2.3) and connecting it directly to the wireless bridge. When the basic configuration is completed, you can set new IP settings for the wireless bridge before connecting it to your network.
