Insight Cloud Managed WiFi 6 AX3600 Access Point Model WAX620 Set an existing domain name You can specify an existing fully qualified domain name (FQDN) for the access point so that you can access the access point by using a domain name instead of an IP address. The FQDN must be a domain name that is registered with a Domain Name System (DNS) provider. The following are the requirements for the FQDN: • The length can be from 1 to 64 characters. • Alphanumeric characters are allowed (a-z and 1-9) • A dot (.) and a hyphen (-) are allowed but the name cannot start with either. An example is myap01-firstfloor-myorganization.com. To set an existing FQDN: 1. Launch a web browser from a computer that is connected to the same network as the access point or directly to the access point through an Ethernet cable or WiFi connection. 2. Enter the IP address that is assigned to the access point. A login window displays. If your browser displays a security warning, you can proceed, or add an exception for the security warning. For more information, see What to do if you get a browser security warning on page 43. 3. Enter the access point user name and password. The user name is admin. The password is the one that you specified. The user name and password are case-sensitive. If you previously added the access point to a NETGEAR Insight network location and managed the access point through the Insight Cloud Portal or Insight app, enter the Insight network password for that location. For more information, see Connect over WiFi using the NETGEAR Insight app on page 25. The Dashboard page displays. Manage the Local Area Network 139 and IP Settings User Manual
