USER’S MANUAL ADDENDUM

Matched Pair Bridges

Certain AvaLAN radios are sold as matched pairs, pre-configured as a wireless

Ethernet bridge. The manual supplied with the pair does not include information

about the pair configuration, hence this addendum.

This addendum applies to these products:

AW900xTR-PAIR

AW2400xTR-PAIR

AW5800xTR-PAIR

AW900iTR-PAIR

AW2400iTR-PAIR

AW900xTP-PAIR

AW2400xTP-PAIR

AW5800xTP-PAIR

The pair configuration as shipped from the factory consists of these features:
1. One unit of the pair is configured as an Access Point and the other is config-

ured as a Subscriber Unit.

2. The Access Point is given the IP Address 192.168.17.17.
3. The Subscriber Unit is given the IP Address 192.168.17.18.
4. User-specified encryption keys are disabled and the two radios are keyed to

each other using the “Auto-Key” method.

5. RF Channel selection is set to automatic mode.

If these configuration parameters work for you in your system, you need only to

connect antennas, power and LAN and the pair should work transparently, look-

ing just like an Ethernet cable.

If you need to change any of the pair’s parameters, you may use the browser

interface as described in the accompanying manual. You might need to do this if

you need to set the pair to a particular channel, or you wish to provide your own

encryption keys. If the default IP Addresses won’t work in your system, the best

way to change them is by using the ipfinder utility described in the manual and

downloadable from www.avalanwireless.com.

In case of difficulty, you may find additional help under the Support tab on our

website or by contacting AvaLAN Technical Support using the information in the

manual.
