3. System Configuration • To activate and configure the Wireless Access Point functionality, navigate to the System: IP page. Click the Wireless Network Interface tab. • Uncheck the Disable box. WAP Configuration: Configure the IP Settings for the Wireless Network. Generally, if the device is being used as a Wireless AP, a static address is set here in the IP Settings. In this example, 192.168.10.1 is used. Set the IP address and the netmask (in this case, 255.255.255.0 to give 254 unique network addresses in subnet), but do not fill in the Gateway, Primary DNS and Secondary DNS. These settings are used if the interface is to be the primary network link to the outside world, or if it will be used for failover. Select Wireless AP, which will make the Wireless AP Settings section visible: Country: Select the correct country from the list. If the country does not appear, select the World Regulatory Domain. SSID: Select an SSID for the network. It should be unique. Broadcast SSID: Check this box to broadcast the SSID. Network Channel: Select the network channel. 6 is most commonly used, so it is best to do a site survey and pick another channel if the unit is being deployed in an office environment. Hardware Mode: The unit supports 802.11b and g, and single-band 802.11n. In most cases, selection 802.11b/g/n will provide the best interoperability with other hardware. 31
