Unified Access Point Administrator's Guide Administrator's Computer Requirements Administrator's Computer Requirements The following table describes the minimum requirements for the administrator's computer for configuration and administration of the UAP through a Web‐based user interface (UI). Table 2: Requirements for the Administrator's Computer Required Software or Component Serial or Ethernet Connection to the Access Point Wireless Connection to the Network Web Browser and Operating System Security Settings Description The computer used to configure the first access point must be connected to the access point by a serial cable or an Ethernet cable. After initial configuration and launch of the first access point on your new wireless network, you can make subsequent configuration changes through the Administration Web pages using a wireless connection to the internal network. For wireless connection to the access point, your administration device will need Wi‐Fi capability similar to that of any wireless client: Portable or built‐in Wi‐Fi client adapter that supports one or more of the IEEE 802.11 modes in which you plan to run the access point. Wireless client software configured to associate with the UAP. Configuration and administration of the UAP is provided through a Web‐based user interface hosted on the access point. We recommend using one of the following supported Web browsers to access the access point Administration Web pages: • Microsoft® Internet Explorer® version 7.x or 8.x (with up‐to‐date patch level for either major version) • Mozilla® Firefox version 3.5 or later • Safari 5 and later versions The administration Web browser must have JavaScript™ enabled to support the interactive features of the administration interface. Ensure that security is disabled on the wireless client used to initially configure the access point. D-Link November 2011 Unified Access Point Administrator's Guide Page 16
