IP Address
192.168.1.10
The default IP address is used if you do not
use a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
(DHCP) server. You can assign a new static IP
address through the Web User Interface.
If you have a DHCP server on the network,
then an IP address will be dynamically
assigned by the server at access point startup.

Static IP Addressing on the Pro-
fessional Access Point” on
page 20
Connection Type Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
(DHCP)
If you do not have a DHCP server on the Inter-
nal network and do not plan to use one, the
first thing you must do after bringing up the
access point is to change the connection type
from DHCP to Static IP.
The Guest network must have a DHCP server.

Static IP Addressing on the Pro-
fessional Access Point” on

figure the Connection Type, see
“Configuring Internal Interface
Ethernet Settings” on page 93.
Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0
This is determined by your network setup and
DHCP server configuration.
