Chapter 4 - System Configuration
By default, the AP is automatically configured with IP settings from a Dynamic
Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server. However, if you are not using a DHCP
server to configure IP addressing, use the CLI to manually configure the initial IP
values (see page 38). Once you have network access to the AP, you can use the
web browser interface to modify the initial IP configuration, if necessary.
DHCP Client (Enable) – Select this option to obtain the IP settings for the AP from a
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server. The IP address, subnet
mask, default gateway, and Domain Name Server (DNS) address are dynamically
assigned to the AP by the network DHCP server. (Default: Enabled)
DHCP Client (Disable) – Select this option to manually configure a static address
for the AP.
IP Address: The IP address of the AP. Valid IP addresses consist of four
decimal numbers, 0 to 255, separated by periods.
Subnet Mask: The mask that identifies the host address bits used for routing
to specific subnets.
NOTE
If there is no DHCP server on your network, or DHCP fails, the AP will automatically start up with a
default IP address of 192.168.1.1.
