AP Has Incorrect IP Address
1. Default IP Address Assignment mode is dynamic (DHCP). If you
do not have a DHCP server on your network, the default IP
Address is 10.0.0.1. If you have more than one unintialized AP
connected to the network, they will all have the same default IP
address and you will not be able to communicate with them (due to
an IP address conflict). In this case, assign each AP a static IP
address via the serial cable or turn off all units but one and change
the IP address using ScanTool one at a time.
2. The AP only contacts a DHCP server during boot-up. If your
network’s DHCP server is not available while the AP is booting, the
device will retain the last IP Address it had. Reboot the AP once
your DHCP server is on-line again or use the ScanTool to find the
Access Point’s current IP address.
3. To find the unit’s current IP address if using DHCP, open the IP
Client Table in the DHCP Server and match the Access Point’s IP
address to its MAC address (found on the product label).
Alternatively, use ScanTool to identify an Access Point’s current IP
address.
4. Once you have the current IP address, use the HTTP or CLI
Interface to change the unit’s IP settings, if necessary.
5. If you use static IP Address assignments, and cannot access the
unit over Ethernet, use the Initializing the IP Address using CLI
procedure. Once the IP Address is set, you can use the Ethernet
Interface to complete configuration.
