The standard package for Bolero standalone includes a Luminex Gigacore 10 network switch. A Bolero Profile has been loaded onto the switches and can be recalled by following the procedure outlined here:
Resetting (flattening) the switch
Occasionally the switch may require a reset, make sure the switch is powered before starting.
Press the mode button for approximately 5 seconds until all LEDs flash red. The button should be released during the flashing cycle (approx. 3 seconds) followed by recycling the power connector (physically remove it and re-attach.)
A reset will not remove profiles from the switch.
Loading a pre-set Bolero profile
Recalling the profile will load the following groups (VLANS) on the switch:
- ISL
- Management
- AES67
At least one port of the switch must be assigned to the Management group to be able to control the switch or interconnected switches.
The IP address of the switch is printed on a label on the read of the unit. Connect a pc to a port of the switch with a static ip in the same subnet as the switch.
Type the IP address of the switch into a web browser on the pc which will launch the login page.
Username is admin, leave the password blank.
In the profiles menu (last option) you will see a Bolero profile. Select this and click Recall. Choose the option to recall profile without network information.
Once loaded the AES67 ports are indicated by a red LED above each switch port, and these will auto detect if POE is being requested by antennae or the NSA 4-wire interface.
NB the control pc must be removed from port one, given a static ip in the same subnet as the standalone Bolero antenna and connected to an AES67 port to make changes to or view the Bolero network.
| Port | Group | Purpose |
| 1 | Management | Configuration of switch |
| 2 | AES67 | Bolero network |
| 3 | AES67 | Bolero network |
| 4 | AES67 | Bolero network |
| 5 | AES67 (rear of unit) | Bolero network |
| 6 | AES67 (rear of unit) | Bolero network |
| 7 | AES67 (rear of unit) | Bolero network |
| 8 | AES67 (rear of unit) | Bolero network |
| 9 * | ISL (Inter-switch link) | Trunk port to connect switches |
| 10 * | ISL (Inter-switch link) | Trunk port to connect switches |
*The rubber capped LC fibre ports are used to interconnect switches.
