How to Use this Guide
This user’s guide gives complete instructions for installation and use of the Outdoor
Bridge.
Outdoor Bridge is supplied with factory set default network settings. Use the
WLAN Management System tool to change the default settings before introducing a
new bridge to an already-established wireless network.
The WLAN Management System is a simple-to-use, yet extremely powerful,
SNMP-based utility for online central configuration and network management from
a remote station on the same subnet. A trap management program is also provided to
monitor/diagnose the Outdoor Bridge.
