Mounting the OnPlus Network Agent

You can place the OnPlus Network Agent on a desktop or mount it on a

wall.

Placement Tips

• Ambient Temperature—To prevent the OnPlus Network Agent from

overheating, do not operate it in an area that exceeds an ambient

temperature of 104°F (40°C).

•AirFlow—Be sure that there is adequate air flow around the unit.

When placing the OnPlus Network Agent on a desktop, make sure that the

surface is flat.

Wall Mounting

The OnPlus Network Agent does not come with a wall-mount kit. For wall

mounting, you will need:

•Two self-tapping screws, each with an outer thread diameter of 3.5 mm

and a length of 16 mm.

•The outer thread diameter must not be greater than 3.7 mm, the head

diameter must be between 6.0 mm and 7.5 mm, and the head height

must not exceed 1.9 mm.

WARNING Insecure mounting can damage the device or cause injury.

Cisco is not responsible for damages incurred by insecure

wall mounting.

To mount the OnPlus Network Agent to a wall:

•Drill two mounting holes 3.74 inches (95 mm) apart horizontally.

•Attach the two self-tapping screws to the wall.

Each screw should be mounted so that the space between the wall

and the underside of the screw head is at least 0.209 inches (5.3 mm).

•Slide the OnPlus Network Agent into position until the screws fit snugly

into the holes on the bottom of the unit.

Connecting the OnPlus Network Agent to

the LAN at the Customer Premises

At the customer premises, follow these steps to connect the

OnPlus Network Agent to the LAN.

STEP 1Plug one end of the supplied RJ-45 Ethernet cable to the LAN port

on the back panel of the OnPlus Network Agent.

STEP 2Plug the other end of the Ethernet cable into a LAN port on the

network at the customer premises.

The port can be either PoE or non-PoE.

NOTE Cisco strongly recommends using Category 5e or better

cable for gigabit connectivity. When connecting the OnPlus

Network Agent to the customer LAN, do not exceed the maximum

cabling distance of 328 feet (100 meters).

Applying Power

To apply power to the OnPlus Network Agent, follow these steps.

STEP 1If you are using the external power adapter shipped with the OnPlus

Network Agent, perform these steps:

•Connect the external power adapter to the POWER connector

on the back of the OnPlus Network Agent.

•Plug the power adapter into a 100-240VAC, 50-60 Hz power

receptacle.

NOTE The OnPlus Network Agent can be simultaneously connected

to a PoE port and to an external power source. If one of these power

sources fails, the other one will continue to supply power.

STEP 2If you are using a PoE port to supply power to the OnPlus Network

Agent, make sure that the cable from the unit to the PoE port is

connected.

STEP 3Slide the power switch on the back panel of the unit to the On

Cisco ON100 Network Agent Quick Start Guide 7

Depending on the speed of the Internet connection, it usually takes

from 10 to 20 minutes for the OnPlus Network Agent to be ready

for the initial activation. If the base software image on the device is

current, this step may not take as long.

During this time, the OnPlus Network Agent:

•Acquires a LAN IP address using DHCP

•Connects to the Internet and downloads the current base

software image

•Upgrades its software

You can monitor the progress of the initial startup by looking at the

LEDs on the front panel of the unit. See the “OnPlus Network

Agent Status LEDs” section on page 7 for more information.

STEP 4The OnPlus Network Agent is ready for activation when the

STATUS 1 LED on the front panel is lit Steady Green and the

STATUS 2 LED is Off.

IMPORTANT If the STATUS 1 and STATUS 2 LEDs are lit Steady

Amber and Blinking Amber for more than two minutes, this

indicates that the OnPlus Network Agent has failed to obtain an IP

address using DHCP. Make sure that the DHCP server is

functioning and that IP addresses are available in the DHCP pool.

To continue, go to Activating the OnPlus Network Agent with the

Cisco OnPlus Portal, page 9.
