Using the 700wl Series System
Basic System Configuration Tasks
When you have completed the installation of your 700wl Series system following the instructions in the
700wl Series system Quick Start Guide or the 700wl Series system Installation and Getting Started Guide for the
components in your system, there are still some basic configuration tasks you may need to perform.
If you have not done so already, change your administrator logon username and password. See
Changing the Built-In Administrator Username and Password on page 2-5.
To add users to the system and specify what access rights they should have, read Chapter 4,
Configuring Rights.
To specify one or more external authentication services, LDAP, RADIUS, Kerberos or XML-RPC,
802.1x or NT Domain logon, for user authentication, read Chapter 5, Configuring Authentication.
To specify access policies that define permitted access for users, read Chapter 4, Configuring Rights.
To enable and configure the 700wl Series system to allow access using VPN protocols, read Chapter 7,
Setting up Wireless Data Privacy.
Once the 700wl Series system is up and running, and you want to monitor system and client status
you should read Chapter 3, System Status.
When you are ready to back up your 700wl Series system configuration, read Backing Up and Restoring
the System Configuration in Chapter 8, System Maintenance.
If you want to upgrade the 700wl Series system software, read Updating the System Software in
Chapter 8, System Maintenance.
