5 Fluidmesh Network Addressing
5.1 Bridge IP Addressing
The FM unit can be operated in bridge mode to create a single point-to-point connection
between two network segments as described in Section 4.1.
Each FM unit is provided with a default IP address for its wired Ethernet port(s), which is:
192.168.0.10
No IP address is associated to the wireless interface.
When you set up a wireless bridge using two FM units for the first time, both units will have the
same default IP address equal to 192.168.0.10. It is recommended to change the IP address of
one of the two units in order to unambiguously address and configure the system with no
confusion (see Figure 5.1).

5.1.1 Connecting and Configuring IP Devices and Cameras
The FM3200 BASE mounts two Ethernet ports. You should directly connect any device using an
Ethernet cable to the PoE injector for FM3200 BASE.
Use a patch Ethernet cable to connect the PoE injector to the FM unit.
The camera or the device attached to the FM unit should use an IP address belonging to the same
class of the devices on the other network segment of the wireless bridge.
The default IP subnet is 192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0 and the default IP address of the radio is
192.168.0.10 / 255.255.255.0
