Chapter 2 Network Topology A typical network topology for the EAP is shown below. Figure 2-1 Typical Topology To deploy an EAP in your local network, a DHCP server is required to assign IP addresses to the EAP and clients. Typically, a router acts as the DHCP server. Ensure the EAPs are in the same subnet with the Controller Host in which the EAP Controller is installed. The EAP can be managed by the EAP Controller software, which is a management software specially designed for the TP-LINK EAP devices on a local wireless network, allowing you to centrally configure and monitor mass EAP devices using a web browser on your PC.

Network Topology
A typical network topology for the EAP is shown below.
Figure 2-1 Typical Topology
To deploy an EAP in your local network, a DHCP server is required to assign IP addresses to the
EAP and clients. Typically, a router acts as the DHCP server. Ensure the EAPs are in the same
subnet with the Controller Host in which the EAP Controller is installed.
The EAP can be managed by the EAP Controller software, which is a management software
specially designed for the TP-LINK EAP devices on a local wireless network, allowing you to
centrally configure and monitor mass EAP devices using a web browser on your PC. For more
information about the EAP Controller, please refer to the
