Applying Settings
After you set the UART settings, network serial port settings, and
operation mode, select
Apply
to make the settings take effect.
The socket can be substantially established between a client and server;
that is, a Bridge in server mode and the other in client mode. The Bridge
with the Network Serial Port option set cannot work alone. Generally, a
Bridge is set to server mode first, which listens to a designated port. The
other Bridge is then set to client mode, which connects to the designated
port on the IP address of the Bridge set to server mode.
Resetting the Bridge
If the Bridge stops responding correctly, you can perform a reset, which
disrupts the network association temporarily, but does not affect Bridge
configuration settings that have already been applied with
Apply
.
To reset the Bridge, under Tools, click
Reset Wireless Workgroup Bridge
.
In the next page, click
Reset
.
The Bridge can also be reset using the Wireless Infrastructure Device
Manager (Widman). Right-click the Bridge in Widman, and then select
Reset
.
