Cisco Cisco Aironet 1400 Wireless Bridge Guia Da Instalação

The following procedures explain how to activate the root and non-root bridges for either default or 
preconfigured bridges.

To activate the root bridge, perform the following steps:

Verify that the face of the radome points in the approximate direction of the remote antenna. If the 
radome face is at a significant angle, use binoculars or reference objects to locate the remote bridge or 
antenna, and then adjust the horizontal and vertical position accordingly.

Apply power and observe the bridge LEDs.

Wait for the bridge to cycle through the following initialization states:

If the Install LED changes to continuous amber, the bridge incorrectly associated with another 
bridge. Turn off the interfering bridge and then restart this procedure.

Power up the non-root bridge and position its antenna. For more information, see the Cisco Aironet 1400 
Series Wireless Bridge Mounting Instructions.

To activate and align the non-root bridge, follow these steps:
