Chapter 1 Overview
Serial Port
The bridge's serial port provides console access to its management system. Use a nine-pin,
straight-through, male-to-female serial cable to connect your computer's COM 1 or COM 2 port to the
bridge's serial port. Assign the following port settings to a terminal emulator to open the management
system pages: 9600 baud, 8 data bits, No parity, 1 stop bit, and Xon/Xoff flow control.

Indicator Lights

The three indicator lights on top of the bridge report Ethernet activity, association status, and radio
activity. The indicators are labeled in

Indicator Lights on the Bridge
CISCO AIRONET 350
W I R E L E S S
The Ethernet indicator signals traffic on the wired LAN, or Ethernet infrastructure. This indicator
blinks green when a packet is received or transmitted over the Ethernet infrastructure.
The status indicator signals operational status. Blinking green indicates that the bridge is operating
normally but is not associated with any wireless devices. Steady green indicates that the bridge is
associated with a wireless client.
For repeater bridges, blinking 1/2 on, 1/2 off indicates the repeater is not associated with the root
bridge; blinking 7/8 on, 1/8 off indicates that the repeater is associated with the root bridge but no
client devices are associated with the repeater; steady green indicates that the repeater is associated
with the root bridge and client devices are associated with the repeater.
The radio indicator blinks green to indicate radio traffic activity. The light is normally off, but it
blinks green whenever a packet is received or transmitted over the bridge's radio.
