TCP / IP Settings
Configuring the SMC2555W-AG with an IP address expands your
ability to manage the access point. A number of access point
features depend on IP addressing to operate.
Note: You can use the web browser interface to access IP addressing
only if the access point already has an IP address that is
reachable through your network.
By default, the SMC2555W-AG will be 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 (page 4-3). After you have network access to the
access point, you can use the web browser interface to modify
the initial IP configuration, if needed.
Note: If there is no DHCP server on your network, or DHCP fails, the
access point will automatically start up with a default IP address of
192.168.2.2.
