Connecting to the
BelAir100SN
You can connect to the BelAir100SN default address using one of the following
methods:
• through the BelAir100SN radio interface
• by connecting directly to the Ethernet port on the BelAir100SN
• by connecting through the cable modem
CAUTION!
Do not connect the BelAir100SN to an operational data network before you
configure its desired IP network parameters. This may cause traffic disruptions
due to potentially duplicated IP addresses.
The BelAir100SN unit must connect to an isolated LAN, or to a desktop or
laptop PC configured to communicate on the same IP sub-network as the
BelAir100SN.
Using the Radio Interface
Use a desktop or laptop PC equipped with a wireless 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g
or 802.11n compliant interface as required, configured with a static IP address
on the same subnet as the default OAM IP address (for example, 10.1.1.1/24).
For the required configuration procedure, refer to your PC and wireless
interface configuration manuals or contact your network administrator. The PC
will connect to the BelAir100SN through the radio interface.
Connecting to the Ethernet Port
Use a cross-connect RJ45 cable to connect the Ethernet port of the unit.
