Configuring the SecureMesh Extender Bridge
Assuming the Extender Bridge 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 Extender Bridge, 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 Extender Bridge 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 Extender Bridge has successfully
connected to the wireless network.
