Activating the Bridge Link
Activating the Bridge Link
The factory default behavior of the bridge changes depending on the Cisco IOS software release that is
running on the unit. Some software releases require that you make manual configuration changes prior
to initiating the bridging link. The following sections describe the default behavior changes and the link
activation procedure.

activation procedure.
Default IP Address Behavior
When you connect a bridge running Cisco IOS Release 12.3(2)JA or later software with a default
configuration to your LAN, the unit requests an IP address from your DHCP server, and if it does not
receive an IP address, it continues to send requests indefinitely. To eliminate this behavior, you must access
the bridge through its console port and assign a static IP address.

Note
In Cisco IOS Release 12.3(4)JA or later, you must create an SSID and enable the radio before the bridge
allows wireless associations from other bridges. These changes to the default configuration improve the
security of a newly installed bridge. For instructions on configuring the SSID, see the
