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
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.
