Configuring the Bridge

After the bridge link is established, the next phase of the process is to

configure the bridges so that they become part of your network. You can

configure the bridge using its command line interface (CLI) to issue IOS

commands or using its graphical user interface (GUI). This guide describes

the GUI and shows you how to access its Express Setup page and perform an

initial configuration.

The entire configuration process using the GUI is described in the Cisco

Aironet 1400 Series Wireless Bridge Hardware Installation Guide. Advanced

configuration information and using the CLI to issue IOS commands are

described in the Cisco Aironet 1400 Series Wireless Bridge Software

Configuration Guide and the Cisco IOS Command Reference for Cisco

Aironet Access Points and Bridges. These documents are available at

Cisco.com.

After establishing a link, you must place the bridges in the normal mode. To

accomplish this, browse to the bridge's Express Setup page and change the

Role in Radio Network parameter to either a root or non-root bridge as

appropriate. Then change the bridge's SSID to conform to your wireless

network. These and other parameters are described in the following sections.

If you are at the root bridge site make configuration changes in the non-root

bridge first, then the root bridge. This sequence is required because the link

is lost when the non-root parameters take effect, but it reassociates after the

root bridge's parameters take effect.
