COMMISSIONING THE GATEWAY
Configuring the SecureMesh Gateway
Assuming the Gateway is properly pre-provisioned, use of automatic provisioning as described in the ―Trilliant
Network Element Management System (NEMS) Administration Guide‖ (Trilliant document number TLT-CS-
ADM-94) recommended.
Monitoring the Power-On Sequence
When power is supplied to the SecureMesh Gateway, it starts a
power-on sequence that can be monitored by observing the pair
of LED lights on the underside of the device.
The SecureMesh Gateway must have access to a GPS signal to
complete its power-on sequence and start making wireless
network connections. The power-on sequence takes up to 15
minutes, depending on how quickly the device can acquire a
GPS signal.
The tables that follow provide detailed descriptions of device
states indicated by the LED lights. When both LED lights are
illuminated and steady, the Gateway has successfully
connected to the wireless network.
