2. Obtain the transceiver MAC address and the ETH address that was recorded earlier in

section

2.3.1

. The address will be in the format 00-05-12-0A-xx-yy for the transceiver and

00-05-12-30-xx-yy for ETH.

3. From the MeshManager software screen, display the devices using the MAC address.

Note

: This step assumes that the MeshManager software has been installed and running on

a networked computer.

4. Within the MeshManager software screen, select the appropriate VMM in the device tree.

5. Right-click on the device MAC address and select the

Ping

option.

A successful response to the Ping command verifies that the VMM is communicating to the
infrastructure devices.
