Configure the Base Station

The base station uses an IP address setting of 192.168.200.1 for the internal network when

configured for cable or DSL modem, PPP-over-Ethernet, or telephone dial-up. It also uses this

IP address when in Access Point mode with no other IP address being received from the DHCP

server.

Setting the configuration parameters of the base station requires a wireless PC (with an

IEEE 802.11 DSSS radio card with 128-bit WEP). Before configuring the base station, choose

the operating mode and gather the network information (your network administrator or ISP

should be able to provide any missing information).

Base Station Client Utility

You can use the BSCU to configure the base station and the associated Cisco Aironet client

IEEE 802.11 DSSS radio card in the wireless PC. You can use this utility to check the

connection status, provide information on the operation of the base station during the

connection process, determine the current version of firmware on the radio card, and load the

latest firmware into the client card.

Installing BSCU

The BSCU utility supports Microsoft Windows 95, Microsoft Windows 98, Microsoft

Windows NT, Microsoft Windows 2000, or Microsoft Windows ME operating systems. It is

installed from the Cisco Aironet 340 Series Base Station CD shipped with the device.

Note To run the BSCU in a Windows 95 or Windows 95A environment, installation of

Internet Explorer 4.0 or greater is required for the necessary networking files.

Follow these steps to install the BSCU:

1If the BSCU utility was previously installed, right-click the telephone icon in the system tray

and select Exit.

2Place the CD in the CD-ROM drive of the computer you are using to configure the base

station.

3Use Windows Explorer to display the contents of the CD.

4Double-click the BSCU folder to display it.

5Double-click the setup.exe file. The installation wizard appears.

6Follow the steps provided by the installation wizard.

7When requested by the installation wizard, select Talk To A Base Station To Access The

Internet.

8Select the Launch Base Station Client Utility check box and click Finish to start the utility.

A pop-up window appears reminding you that your SSID and WEP Encryption Key are

currently set to the default values. See the following section to change the SSID and WEP

Encryption Key from their default values.

Configuring a Radio Card

A wireless PC must be configured to communicate with the base station before initial

configuration of the base station can be accomplished. You can configure a PC with a radio

card by using the BSCU or another vendor’s IEEE 802.11 DSSS radio card. If you are using

another vendor’s radio card, see the Cisco Aironet 340 Series Base Station Hardware

Installation Guide.

Follow these steps to configure the PC and radio card using the BSCU:

1Select Start > Settings > Control Panel > Network > Protocols > TCP/IP (for the Cisco

Aironet wireless LAN adapters) > Properties to display the TCP/IP Properties window.

Refer to the Cisco Aironet 340 Series Base Station Software Configuration Guide if you

need further assistance.

2Click the Obtain an IP address from the DHCP server radio button.

3Double-click the BSCU icon on the PC desktop to activate the utility.

Note A warning message might be displayed that indicates the SSID and radio network

encryption are set to default values. Click OK.

Configuring the Base Station with BSCU

After a wireless PC is configured, configure the base station using BSCU. These steps are

appropriate if you are using the cable or DSL modem or a telephone dial-up (modem)

configuration method. If you are using an Internet browser or Telnet utility to make

configuration changes, see the Cisco Aironet 340 Series Base Station Hardware Installation

Guide.

Configure the base station by using BSCU as follows:

1If it is not already running, start BSCU.

2From the Base Station pull-down menu, select Set up Base Station. The Set Up Base Station

With My Settings dialog box appears.

3Click Edit Base Station Settings. The Base Station Wireless Network Parameters dialog box

appears.

4Enter the SSID in the entry box using the 1 to 32 ASCII characters (printable keyboard

characters) assigned to the radio card.

5Verify the encryption capability of the radio card. The base station default parameters are

set to 128-bit encryption and mixed-cell operation. If you have a radio card with no

encryption capability or 40-bit encryption (that is, model number PCM341), encryption is

not available, and the ability to change WEP encryption is grayed out.

6If 128-bit encryption is being used, choose whether you will enter the WEP Encryption Key

in hexadecimal (0 to 9 or case insensitive A-F up to 26 characters) or ASCII (1 to 13

printable characters).

7Enter the encryption key in the WEP Encryption Key field and click Next.

Encryption prevents unauthorized access by wireless devices because messages are encoded

using an encryption key. The same WEP encryption key must be used by all wireless devices

communicating with the base station.

8A menu appears that requires you to choose which configuration method you want to use.

See the “Cable or DSL Modem Configuration” section below if you want to use the default

configuration method. If you want to use telephone dial-up (modem) configuration, skip

parameter to on. When set to On, the Dial On Demand feature allows the built-in modem

to automatically connect to the ISP when an Internet browser attempts to access an Internet

IP address from a wireless PC.

Note If auto-dial can be initiated by your browser or email, it might be necessary to

reconfigure the wireless PC Internet browser to use a LAN connection rather than a dial-up

connection to prevent the browser from attempting to dial the ISP.

8Select the country where the modem operates by using the up and down buttons on the

Country selection box. For North American sites, the USA default option is correct.

Note If your operating country is not shown, contact Technical Support for assistance.

9Click Next. The settings you chose are displayed on the Set Up Base Station with My

Settings dialog box.
