the protected interface.
Note the IP address displayed on the BSC's front-panel LCD. You will need to know this IP

the primary BSC. See "Configuring Failover Parameters" on page 4-25 for information
on configuring the BSC's heartbeat parameters in a failover configuration.
Powering Down Your BSC
You should always power down the BSC using its software shutdown feature as described
in Chapter 7.
Caution: Never use the BSC-2100's front-panel Reset button or rear-panel power switch to
power down the BlueSecure Controller. Likewise, never use the BSC-2200/3200/5200's
rear-panel power switch to power down the BlueSecure Controller. Failing to power down
the BSC using its software shutdown function or the shutdown procedure listed below may
render the BSC un-bootable.
Use the following procedure to power down a BSC using its hardware controls. The
procedure is the same for BSC-600, BSC-1200, BSC-2100, and BSC-2200/3200/5200
BlueSecure Controllers:

Enabling Power over Ethernet on the BSC-600 and BSC-1200
Note: In addition to the instructions in this section, it is also necessary to software enable
PoE, as explained in "Port settings" on page 4-11. By default, the ports used for PoE are
software disabled.
An IEEE 802.3af Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) option is available for model BSC-600/1200
BlueSecure Controllers. This option enables direct connection of PoE-enabled WLAN
access points, like the BlueSecure 1500 Access Point, to the four Managed Ports on the
BSC-600/1200 front panel.
If you have ordered the PoE option for your BSC-600/1200, a PoE power supply is
included with your BSC-600/1200 distribution. This power supply has the following
specifications:
•
Input Voltage: 85 to 246 VAC
•
Input Frequency: 47 to 63 Hz.
•
Output: 48 VDC ± 2%
•
Operating Temperature: 0 to 70
Note: The BSC-600/1200 PoE option should be used only for intra-building circuits.
