Management

UPnP

UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) enables a Windows XP user to discover peripheral devices automatically by HTTP. When the UPnP functionality is enabled, you can see the AP in My Network Places of Windows XP. The NI WAP-3701/3711 can be given a friend name that will be shown in My Network Places. Double-clickingthe icon in My Network Places that stands for the AP will launch the default Web browser for you to configure the NI WAP-3701/3711.

System Log

System events can be logged to the on-board RAM of the NI WAP-3701/3711 (Local log) or sent to a remote computer on which an SNMP trap monitor program runs (Remote log by SNMP trap). See the next subsection for more information about SNMP trap settings.

The system events are divided into the following categories:

yGeneral: system and network connectivity status changes.

yBuilt-in AP: wireless client association and WEP authentication status changes.

yMIB II traps: Cold Start, Warm Start, Link Up, Link Down and SNMP Authentication Failure.
