Admin Port Use the Admin port to manage your controller without needing to be connected to the
managed or protected ports. The admin port allows for HTTPS access and SSH access.
This port doesn’t support mobility, routing, VLANs or firewalling. To enable the Admin
port on the BSC-1200, the failover port must be disabled.
Managed Port Use the Managed Port to connect the BSC to the managed side (i.e., the wireless side) of
your network via Ethernet. The BSC-1200 Managed Port is equipped with a copper, RJ-
45 10/100 Mbps Ethernet connector.
Protected Port Use the Protected Port to connect the BSC to the protected side (i.e., the wired side) of
your network via Ethernet. The BSC-1200 Protected Port is equipped with a copper, RJ-45
10/100 Mbps Ethernet connector.

LED Color Description
Power Blue Indicates that the unit is powered up. This LED is tied to the system power supply and is
not under software control
Fault Amber This is a dual purpose indicator under software control. Its primary function is to indicate
that a fault has occurred in either at boot or run time. This LED will also indicate (blink)
that a push button event (power down or restart) has been sensed and is being serviced.
Activity Green This is a dual purpose indicator under software control. Its primary function is to indicate
system activity, i.e. managed 10/100/1000 Ethernet traffic between the processor’s
MAC1 interface and the on board Layer II switch. This LED will also be used to display
boot codes.
System Green This is a dual purpose indicator under software control. Its primary function is to indicate
system status. This LED will also be used to display boot codes.
Media Green This is a dual purpose indicator under software control. Its primary function is to indicate
read and write activity to the system’s storage Flash. This LED will also be used to display
boot codes.
Test Green This indicator is under software control. Its primary function is to indicate that the system is
executing a functional test.
PoE Enabled
(1-4)
