Connecting to the Bridge Locally

If you need to configure the bridge locally (without connecting the bridge's power injector to a wired

LAN), you can connect a PC to the power injector's Ethernet port using a Category 5 Ethernet cable.

You can use a local connection to the Ethernet port much as you would use a serial port connection.

Note

You do not need a special crossover cable to connect your PC to the bridge's power injector;

you can use either a straight-through cable or a crossover cable.

If the bridge is configured with default values and not connected to a DHCP server or cannot obtain

an IP address, it defaults to IP address 10.0.0.1 and becomes a mini-DHCP server. In that capacity, the

bridge provides up to twenty IP addresses between 10.0.0.11 and 10.0.0.30 to an Ethernet-capable PC

connected to the power injector's Ethernet port.

The mini-DHCP server feature is disabled automatically when you assign a static IP address to the

bridge.

Caution

When a bridge with default settings is connected on a wired LAN and does not receive an

IP address from a DHCP server, the bridge provides an IP address to any DHCP requests

it receives.

Follow these steps to connect to the bridge locally:

Make sure that the PC you intend to use is configured to obtain an IP address automatically,

Step 1

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.

When you connect your PC to the bridge's power injector or reconnect your PC to the wired

Note

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.

Power up the power injector.

Step 2

Follow the steps in the "Assigning Basic Settings" section on page 10. If you make a mistake

Step 3

and need to start over, follow the steps in the "Resetting the Bridge to Default Settings"

section on page 7.
