Software User Manual 12/10/09 D-Link UAP Field Baud Rate System Name System Contact System Location Table 4: Basic Settings Page Description Select a baud rate for the serial port connection. The baud rate on the AP must match the baud rate on the terminal or terminal emulator to connect to the AP command-line interface (CLI) by using a serial (console) connection. The following baud rates are available: • 9600 • 19200 • 38400 • 57600 • 115200 Enter a name for the AP. This name appears only on the Basic Settings page and is a name to identify the AP to the administrator. Use up to 64 alphanumeric characters, for example My AP. Enter the name, e-mail address, or phone number of the person to contact regarding issues related to the AP. Enter the physical location of the AP, for example Conference Room A. CONNECTING TO THE AP WEB INTERFACE BY USING THE IPV6 ADDRESS To connect to the AP by using the IPv6 global address or IPv6 link local address, you must enter the AP address into your browser in a special format. Note: The following instructions and examples work with Microsoft Internet Explorer 7 (IE7) and might not work with other browsers. To connect to an IPv6 global address, add square brackets around the IPv6 address. For example, if the AP global IPv6 address is 2520::230:abff:fe00:2420, type the following address into the IE7 address field: http://[2520::230:abff:fe00:2420]. To connect to the iPv6 link local address, replace the colons (:) with hyphens (-), add the interface number preceded with an "s," then add ".ipv6-literal.net." For example, if the AP link local address is fe80::230:abff:fe00:2420, and the Windows interface is defined as "%6," type the following address into the IE7 address field: http://fe80--230-abff-fe00-2420s6.ipv6literal.net. USING THE CLI TO VIEW THE IP ADDRESS The DHCP client on the UAP is enabled by default. If you connect the UAP to a network with a DHCP server, the AP automatically acquires an IP address. To manage the UAP by using the Administrator UI, you must enter the IP address of the access point into a Web browser. If a DHCP server on your network assigns an IP address to the UAP, and you do not know the IP address, use the following steps to view the IP address of the UAP: 1. Using a null-modem cable, connect a VT100/ANSI terminal or a workstation to the console (serial) port. If you attached a PC, Apple, or UNIX workstation, start a terminal-emulation program, such as HyperTerminal or TeraTerm. 2. Configure the terminal-emulation program to use the following settings: 34CSFP6XXUAP-SWUM100-D13 Using the CLI to View the IP Address Page 21

To connect to the AP by using the IPv6 global address or IPv6 link local address, you must enter the AP address into your

browser in a special format.

To connect to an IPv6 global address, add square brackets around the IPv6 address. For example, if the AP global IPv6

address is 2520::230:abff:fe00:2420, type the following address into the IE7 address field: http://[2520::230:abff:fe00:2420].

To connect to the iPv6 link local address, replace the colons (:) with hyphens (-), add the interface number preceded with an

"s," then add ".ipv6-literal.net." For example, if the AP link local address is fe80::230:abff:fe00:2420, and the Windows

interface is defined as "%6," type the following address into the IE7 address field: http://fe80--230-abff-fe00-2420s6.ipv6-
