Set Up the Access Point
Before mounting the access point in a high location, first set up and test the
unit to verify wireless network connectivity.
Note:
The access point uses a DHCP client that is enabled by default. If a DHCP
server exists in your network, the access point obtains an IP address from the
DHCP server. If a DHCP server is not detected in your network, the access point
sets its IP address to a static IP address of 192.168.0.100.
¾
To cable your access point:
1.
If a DHCP server is not connected to your network, configure a
computer with a static IP address of 192.168.0.210 and a subnet mask
of 255.255.255.0.
2.
Connect an Ethernet cable from a LAN port on the access point to a
LAN port on a PoE switch.
3.
Connect an Ethernet cable from the PoE switch to a Ethernet port on
the computer.
4.
Check the LEDs to verify that the access point is set up correctly.
