Chapter 4 Configuring the Bridge for the First Time
Assigning Basic Settings
Step 3 Follow the steps in the “Assigning Basic Settings” section on page 4-4. If you make a mistake and need
to start over, follow the steps in the “Resetting the Bridge to Default Settings” section on page 4-2.
Step 4 After configuring the bridge, remove the Ethernet cable from your PC and connect the power injector to
your wired LAN.
Note When you connect your PC to the bridge’s power injector or reconnect your PC to the wired 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.
Assigning Basic Settings
After you determine or assign the bridge’s IP address, you can browse to the bridge’s Express Setup page
and perform an initial configuration. Follow these steps:
Step 1 Open your Internet browser. You must use Microsoft Internet Explorer (version 5.x or later) or Netscape
Navigator (version 4.x).
Step 2 Enter the bridge’s IP address in the browser address line and press Enter. An Enter Network Password
screen appears.
Step 3 Press Tab to bypass the Username field and advance to the Password field.
Step 4 Enter the case-sensitive password Cisco and press Enter. The Summary Status page appears. Figure 4-1
