Wireless Array
26 Installing the Wireless Array
depending on the model (see “XR Wireless Array Product Family” on
page 5).
Secure Shell (SSH) utility
To establish secure remote command line access to the Array, you need a
Secure Shell (SSH) utility, such as PuTTY. The utility must be configured
to use SSH-2, since the Array will only allow SSH-2 connections.
Secure Web browser
Xirrus supports the latest version of the following Browsers: Internet
Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Chrome, or Safari. A secure Web browser is
required for Web-based management of the Array. The browser must be
on the same subnet as the Array, or you must set a static route for
management as described in the warning above.
Serial connection capability
A serial port (console) is present on all Arrays/APs except XR-500/600/
1000 Series and some XR-2000 models, where Xircon can be used
instead—see the Xircon User’s Guide. To connect directly to the console
port on the Array, your computer must be equipped with a male 9-pin
serial port and terminal emulation software (for example,
HyperTerminal). The Xirrus Array only supports serial cable lengths up
to 25’ per the RS-232 specification.
Use the following settings when establishing a serial connection:

The Array’s Ethernet ports should be connected to an Ethernet switch, not
an Ethernet hub — if a hub is used, we recommend that you do not bond-
pair Ethernet ports.
