7 1 I NTRODUCTION The 3Com® W ir eless LAN Outdoor Bridge Solution is a comprehensive building-to-building outdoor wireless LAN kit that r educes the need to evaluate, purchase and assemble separate components. One convenient package includes everything you need to offer an easy-to-manage building-to-building wir eless LAN.
8 association between the wired LANs in two r emote buildings. See the following diagram of the point-to-point topology . P OINT - TO -M ULTIPOINT Point-to-multipoint topology allows communication among three or mor e buildings.
9 B ASIC O PERATING M ODES T wo operating modes relate to the basic WLAN topologies: ■ Ad hoc mode is the basis for point-to-point topology . Operating in ad hoc mode, two outdoor bridges can associate without an access point, allowing the LANs to which they are connected to communicate.
10 2 I NSTALLING THE O UTDOOR B RIDGE This equipment must be installed in compliance with local and national building codes, regulatory r estrictions, and FCC rules. For the safety of people and equipment, only professional network personnel should install the bridge, cables, and antennas.
11 for the country of use. All refer ences to the power supply in this document refer to equipment that meets these requir ements. Because the power supply plug is the only means of disconnecting the bridge from power , make sur e the power outlet is accessible.
12 minimize damage from lightning strikes. A lightning arr estor , properly grounded and installed at each building in the topology , will protect networking equipment in the building, as well as the people working there, fr om lightning-induced surges that travel on Ethernet cables.
13 S AFETY I NFORMATION WARNING: Do not install the bridge near overhead power lines, electric light or power circuits, or where it can come into contact with such circuits. Provide ten feet or more clearance between the bridge and such power lines or circuits.
14 M OUNTING THE B RIDGE TO A M AST The bridge can be placed in any suitable outdoor location (see “Installation Guidelines” on page 11). Refer to the adjustable mount instruction sheet that comes.
15 C ONNECTING THE B RIDGE TO THE LAN Y ou can connect to the LAN either through the 3Com power supply or thr ough IEEE 802.3af power -over -Ethernet compliant equipment. U SING THE P OWER S UPPLY The power supply can be located indoors at any point between the bridge and the LAN access port where an accessible power outlet exists.
16 illustration shows the connection through a 3Com Ethernet Power Supply to a 3Com SuperStack ® Switch. I NSTALLING S OFTWARE U TILITIES The 3Com installation CD includes the W ir eless Infrastructure Device Manager tool, which helps you set up and administer the wireless components of your network.
17 E STABLISHING W IRELESS A SSOCIATION After the bridge and software utilities ar e installed, you can configure the bridge as follows: ■ Launch the bridge configuration. (See “Configuring the Building-to-Building Bridge” on page 18 for details on how to launch the configuration and make changes.
18 3 C ONFIGURING THE B UILDING - TO -B UILDING B RIDGE If the configuration that was set at the factory does not meet your network requir ements, or if you want to customize the settings, you can configure the bridge through your W eb browser .
19 identified with exclamation points (!). Y ou can refr esh this display by clicking Refresh . Y ou should refr esh the display , for example, after you change a device IP address. 2 In the W ir eless Network T ree, select the device you want to configure.
20 U SING THE P RE -IP C ONFIGURATION W IZARD Y ou can only configure devices that ar e on the same subnet as your computer . T o configure a device on a dif ferent subnet, you must first assign it an IP addr ess on the same subnet as your computer .
21 2 Return to the device manager and repeat step 1 for the second bridge. Make sure that both bridges ar e using the same BSSID. If the bridges are not using the same BSSID, specify the BSSID on both bridges as follows: a In the W ir eless Network page, select the following Network Mode: Ad-hoc (Peer -to-Peer) Specify .
22 S ETTING IP N ETWORK P ROPERTIES Under System Configuration, click IP Network . The IP Network Properties page appears, where you can change the following settings. When you ar e finished, click Save . ■ IP Network Setting —This setting allows you to change the device IP address.
23 T o specify an IP address, click Specify an IP address , enter the IP address parameters in the spaces provided. After you change the IP address and click Save , you cannot continue to configure the device using the old IP addr ess. T o continue configuring this device after making this change, you must do the following: a Close your browser .
24 T o set up protocol port filtering: 1 Under System Configuration, click Protocol Filtering . 2 In the Protocol Filtering page, click the Allow radio button next to the UDP/IP or TCP/IP protocol (or click both buttons).
25 T o maintain wireless association, the WLAN service area on a bridge and the device with which it is associated must match exactly . Therefor e, if the bridge is set to specify the WLAN service area and you change the other device’ s WLAN service area, make sur e to change the bridge WLAN service area also.
26 restrictions. Y indicates the power level that is set automatically; N indicates that a combination is not allowed. S ETTING A DVANCED P ERFORMANCE P ROPERTIES Under System Configuration, click Wireless Network . On the W ireless Network Properties page, click the link to go to advanced wir eless network configuration.
27 auto-negotiation. T o enable flow control, click On . T o disable flow control, click Off . ■ Acknowledgement Delay —This setting determines the length of time the bridge waits for an acknowledgement after transmitting packets. When the delay time has passed, the bridge resends the packets.
28 S ETTING UP AN A D H OC N ETWORK Operating in ad hoc mode, two bridges can establish a point-to-point association without an access point, allowing two LANs to communicate. 1 Install the first bridge. 2 Use the 3Com W ir eless Infrastructure Device Manager to select the first bridge and launch its configuration management system.
29 O PTIMIZING AN A D H OC I NSTALLATION Y ou can optimize an ad hoc installation by adjusting antenna positions slightly to improve the radio signal between bridges.
30 b Enter the BSSID in the spaces provided. c Click Save . 5 After you have enabled RSSI broadcasting on both bridges and verified that they are using the same BSSID, r etur n to the device manager , select the first bridge, and click Properties . 6 In the device properties window , click RSSI Monitor .

38 4 T ROUBLESHOOTING D IAGNOSING P ROBLEMS If you have difficulty with a 3Com Wireless LAN building-to-building bridge, try the solutions in the following table. Symptom Solutions Two bridges fail to communicate in ad hoc mode. ■ Adjust the positions of the antennas to improve reception.
39 A bridge set for 128-bit Shared Key encryption seems to communicate with an access point set for 40-bit Shared Key encryption or open system. Although the bridge is allowed to associate with an access point set for a different level of encryption, data authentication is not allowed.
40 D ISCONNECTING THE B RIDGE ■ If you are using the 3Com power supply , unplug it from the power source. Then unplug the Ethernet cable from the power supply and the second Ethernet cable from the bridge. ■ If the bridge is connected directly to a power -over -Ether net device, unplug the bridge Ethernet cable from the device.
