Insight Cloud Managed WiFi 6 AX3600 Access Point Model WAX620 connect to the access point over its default IP address so that you can configure it offline. After you complete the configuration, you can bring the access point online. Note: Because the access point is not connected to a PoE+ switch, you can use this configuration method only if you have a power adapter for the access point. To connect to the access point using a computer that is connected to a LAN/PoE+ port of the access point: 1. Record the IP address and subnet mask of your computer so that you can reinstate these IP address settings later. 2. Temporarily change the IP address on your computer to 192.168.0.210 with 255.255.255.0 as the subnet mask. (You can actually use any IP address in the 192.168.0.2-192.168.0.254 range, with the exception of IP address 192.168.0.100, which is the default IP address of the access point.) For more information about changing the IP address on your computer, see the help or documentation for your computer. 3. Use an Ethernet cable to connect your computer to a LAN/PoE+ port on the access point. 4. On the computer, launch a web browser and enter 192.168.0.100 in the address bar. Your browser might display a security warning because of the self-signed certificate on the access point, which is expected behavior. 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. 5. Enter the access point user name and default password.
