Initial Configuration Steps
Logging In – Enter “admin” for the user name and “smcadmin”
for the password. The CLI prompt appears displaying the access
point’s model number.
Setting the IP Address – By default, the access point is
configured to obtain IP address settings from a DHCP server. You
may also use the command line interface (CLI) to assign an IP
address that is compatible with your network.
Type “configure” to enter configuration mode, then type “interface
ethernet” to access the Ethernet interface-configuration mode.
First type “no ip dhcp” to disable DHCP client mode. Then type “ip
address ip-address netmask gateway,” where “ip-address” is the
access point’s IP address, “netmask” is the network mask for the
network, and “gateway” is the default gateway router. Check with
your system administrator to obtain an IP address that is
compatible with your network.
After configuring the access point’s IP parameters, you can
access the management interface from anywhere within the
attached network. The command line interface can also be
