6.8.3.1

Adding a New SAC Network Bridge

Once a network has been configured through SAC, you can
use the SAC function to add a new Fortress Bridge to the
network.

1

Position the new Bridge so that it operates only within its
safe temperature range (14º–122º F/

10º–50º C).

2

Connect an 802.11a-capable antenna to antenna port 2
(

ANT2

) of the new Bridge.

3

Connect the

WAN

port of the new Bridge to the

WAN

port of

any node in the SAC network.

4

Connect the new Bridge’s external +48V DC power supply
to its front-panel

+48V DC

power inlet, and plug the power

supply into a properly rated AC power outlet with the cord
provided.

NOTE:

An RJ-45-

to-DB9 adapter—

included with each
Bridge—is required to
connect the Bridge’s se-
rial

Console

port to a

DB9 terminal connec-
tion. Pin outs for these
adapters are given in
Table 7.1 on page 116.

5

Connect the new Bridge’s

Console

port directly to the serial

terminal of the computer you will use to preconfigure the
new Bridge.

6

Open a terminal application on the computer connected to
the new Bridge’s

Console

port and (using the settings given

in Section 6.1.2) open a session with the new Bridge.

7

Log in to the CLI of the new Bridge, using

sysadm

as both

the login ID and password.

8

Preconfigure the new Bridge to use the same Access ID
and encryption algorithm already in effect on the Fortress
Bridge network with these commands:

[GW]>

set accessid <16digithexid>

[GW]>

set crypto [-e aes128|aes192|aes256][-t <hrs>]

9

Use

show sac

to determine—and then make a note of—the

serial number of the new Bridge:
